I wonder and worry about what's ahead for my daughter. My dad warned me this was coming quite some time ago. Having lived through WWII, he's seen so much. I just have to believe, have hope and continue to pray. I've given you an award!! You can pick it up at my blog. I think about this all the time.

Her mother died young and once it was her, her two brothers and her father living in a tiny fruit stand by the side of the road. Even the poorest among us have things so much better... or the capacity for better, as there is always shelter to sleep in and food to eat. These people had no government funded shelters and had to rely on local do-gooders from the churches. My mom grew up like this, moving from place to place, trying to find a scrap of food.

My daughter has never experienced poverty and I hope she never will so it's sometimes very difficult to teach her to appreciate what she has. We struggle with that at home a bit.

And things like this affect me greatly. I never lose sight of what I have over what I want, and spend every day mentally reminding myself of the blessings I have, regardless of current situations I have in my life. I would say that, although this women looks dirty and tired, she is doing what is best for her kids, she is trying to continue on and while its not ideal in the slightest, her blessings may be that she has a husband that provides, that works, that continues on, that she doesnt live in a country where diseases run rampid, and you are beaten for voicing an opinion. We all have to put things into perspective every day. trisha Kim, i am very compassionate, even though I am a hard ass. And things like this affect me greatly.
