My Family Rocks

I've been feeling an ensy bit depressed and kind of feeling-sorry-for-myself a little bit these last couple of weeks. Life just isn't "working" for me I guess you could say. Money is tight, Ben and I have been arguing a little more than normal (uh, duh, probably because money's tight), I've been feeling really tired, and just kind of feeling negative about the world.

This morning when I turned on the radio as I was driving to work, I head a woman calling in to the radio station and request a song to be played. The woman explained that she was going through chemotherapy and radiation because she has cancer. She wanted the song played to feel some encouragement, and she just had such a great attitude about it.

God really has a way of making me feel like my problems are the size of ants compared to what other people are facing...I needed that today. I need that always.

I decided to look at things more positively today, just for today...it worked. I feel so blessed to have my rockin' little family. I love Ben and Sam so much and I know that no matter what happens, they love me back. I think I'm going to look at things in a positive light tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that...and, you get my point right?!

Thank you God for blessing me today, and always.

Tiffany, you said it. :)There are times when I have felt that same way too. Especially with all the ups and downs right now of my financial situation, wink-wink, but like you said, in the grand scheme of things our "problems" really aren't that big. With God all things are possible!

Thank you for that message girl, I needed to hear that.

Love you girl!
