Today I have to be thankful for what I have not what I dont have.
No matter how hard the last years have been, how many changes I am going thru, or even how many times I have decided to give up. I decided in the middle of my moment of gray, I decided to think of those who have it worse.
My friends mom who just had a stroke, the homeless at my church every Sunday, the women in my fitness group who cant afford anything, jobless, etc. I know that I still have my friends, those praying for me, those thinking of me. I know that I still have my faith.
I have decided to say a prayer tonite about those who are truly suffering, even though I feel like I am suffering to, I KNOW Ill be ok, I hope they will be as well.
Thank you for thinking of me and reading. I am greatful and grateful!
Thank you!

Tampa's Homeless
This morning I was able to go and help my Church serve the homeless.
The get served a great warm meal every Sunday morning at my church, Hyde Park United Methodist.
I have to tell you that I was aware that there were homeless all over our country. But when actually meeting these individuals I was so amazed at the diversity. From young and old, to men and women, I cant beleive that there are so many amongst us.
People who came this morning might not even be homeless, there are also people who have a place to live but no FOOD.
Standing there helping serve I just wanted to cry. I am thankful to just being there and able to say hello to everyone of them and wish them well. I was so touched by some of the younger girls and guys and I wanted ask,how did you get here? I was remembering how many times this year I have felt sorry for myself and thought, but I still have a home and some food in my fridge.
Well, today I am greatful for what I have and the chance to meet some very nice people who just need our prayers and love.
What am I greatful for? Love! Love! Love!
PS as a reminder, it grateful, but it was alreay taken.
