A much needed perspective for me

I was talking to the president of Morris College a few days ago when he told me about a sign he saw that said:

"I complained about having no shoes until I saw a man with no feet."

Regardless of your situation, you don't know how blessed you really are.

It is amazing how much we complain about small issues that we have when there are other people out there that are worse off than we. We should constantly thank God for the blessings in our life and the blessings that are yet to come.
Stay Blessed

Thats true. And it goes with the saying "Give a man a fish..." We have many things to be greatful for but we dont think about it untill its taken from us. Sometimes we are used to something that we dont know what it is like to have the better things. Thanks again Joe!!!
