Riches

When is enough enough? I have hit that point in my life! Enough is enough. I can no longer allow silly, hateful, mean spirited people to be apart of my everyday world. I know they are out there, like a disease that will spread if we allow them to. But I am standing up! NO MORE! A few months ago I posted on Facebook that I was choosing to be grateful for the small gifts God has given to me. I had forgot about this choice and had become complacent and crabby. I have allowed the views of fellow softball players to anger me, allowed my sister to hurt me, lost a friend somewhere along the way, and become so wrapped up in MY life that I forgot to be grateful for what I have. God says to Love my neighbor as myself. Love all his children. So, today I am going to work on being the best me I can. I am grateful for the food in my tummy, the AC in my home and car, the education I am gifted, the roof over my head, and the few dollars in my account. But most of all the supportive and understanding friends and family I have. If you have known me for very long you have herd me say, "When I rule the world it'll be perfect"... I have realized this is so far from the truth because I am a hot mess! But that's okay by me. The older I get, the less I know. Everyday is a journey and what an amazing ride I have had thus far. I am rich beyond belief. I have a wonderfully beautiful Husband who thinks I hung the moon and three amazing children who Love me more often than hate me. What more can I ask for? How about you? What are your riches?
