Hello....
Was thinking of what a great country I live in...
Easy to be complacent and take all our "Goodies"
for granted....when I turn on the kitchen facet...the bath-
room sink...the tub...how many countries on this planet...
would find that little practice...unbelievable and mind-boggling....fresh water coming out of those facets....abundant
water to drink....not muddy and full of germs as it is in some places... flushing the toilet...unheard of in many place...food to eat...and plenty of it....transportation to take us anywhere in the world we want to go....opportunities to make a good living...and keep our families in food and shelter....clothed and other amenities....Just pick up the phone and make an appointment with a doctor....freedom to vote for our government leaders....freedom to worship as we please...freedom to speak out....even if it is contrary to public opinion.....I wish everyone on earth had these things.... I know that some places that are not "civilized" and "modern" the people there spend each day gathering food...enjoying their type of shelter...and enjoying their families and their particular life style...they are happy.....Lovely...
It is the countries where there is hunger and no shelter that is substantial...etc... where there is rampant disease...where there is no hope...It is those places that I hurt for......that I pray for a better future....And with all that I think of and salute Mother Teresa....
She had the most enormous servants heart................
That is whats on Louisa's mind tonight.........Louisa
