No Complaints Here


I can't complain. No really, I can't and I refuse. I've had some hard times this past year, but I still have a home, ajob and most importantly, my son. Can you imagine, the cute little trinkets you sit around your home, the old yellow and faded family pictures, suddenly gone, just washed away? Your job, your neighbors, your neighborhood, just a memory. Can you imagine having to start your entire life all over again?
As our brother's and sister's take refuge across the country from Katrina's destruction, let us simply ask God to bless them. Let us be thankful for what we have and the next time you open the fridge and all of the soda is gone, don't pitch a fit, don't complain. Just be thankful you had money, to buy soda, to put in a refrigerator, in your kitchen, in your home.
