How frail life is

It makes you realize how frail life is when you hear about a freak accident that could have taken a life, but thankfully it didn't. It makes you realize that possibly losing a leg, is the good alternative. One minute your life is fine - stressed, busy, monotonous, whatever you might think your life is, and then something happens and it makes you realize that you would give anything to go back to life as usual.

A husband of a friend was in an accident and I pray that he is ok. I pray that they can make it through this and be ok.

Another friend of mine slipped and fell many months ago and is still having so many issues. A friends mother has cancer and is in the fight of her life.

At these times, I step back and realize that my "hectic" life is nothing. I have it so good. My husband and kids are healthy, my family is healthy. For that, I am truly grateful. I am sending out a prayer to all those people in my life that really need an extra hand right now. I wish I knew what I could do for them. Most times, I don't do anything, and I am ashamed of that. The little things that I have done seem like nothing. I'm too busy to help - well that seems just pathetic now.

I am usually very private about my religious thoughts, but tonight I am putting it out there. Pray for those in need, it's the least I can do.
