Although there are always trying circumstances in our lives, I think it is easy to forget that we have a lot to appreciate. Three weeks ago I crashed hard on a ski jump, was unconscious for at leat 5 minutes. I found out later that I had a 50/50 chance of surviving the first night(glad I didn't know then!)So my ski season ended and now I have to take it easy for another month. At first I hated it, but now I take the time to appreciate where I am and the life I have. My point to all of this?? Don't take one day for granted, or the people that really care about you!!!

i had a 50/50 chnace of surviving 2 hours. but i think unless this happens to you, people do take it for granted, its when things happen you realise this.

Jesus is my joy! He has blessed me beyond measure. Four wonderful children and everlasting life. Your next breath is not guaranteed no doubt, but salvation is to all those who follow after Him. Felt led to say this.

God Bless!~

Glad you're still around, Wanting1!drinker

Life's too short - or too long - depending on how you view it, to not take joy in the moment!
