...you could lose all you've ever had.
today was sort of a reality check for me. i dont think many people take the time to think about how much they are truly blessed with in life. in just a moment, everything could be ripped out of your hands and torn to shreds. in this case, burned to shreds. its so astronomical to think of how much a persons life could completely change direction in about five minutes. i just wish sometimes that devastations didn't exist. but then i guess lessons would never be learned. faith would never be found.
i dont know. its a lot to think about. its days like these, tragedies like this that make me realize just how much i have in my life, and how quickly things can change. i am extremely grateful for all that i have, but i think sometimes everyone forgets to be thankful.
on a lighter note, last night was fun. i worked until around 9ish and then hung out with sabrina. we stopped by maddie's house to visit her and christine. that was cute =). i never get to see/hang out with them! poop. then sabrina and i drove to coldstone to say hey to a few friends. it was fun. then we came back to sabrina's, talked a little, then hit the sack. we had to be up at 7:30!
we worked the navy's pancake breakfast. we did child care, but didn't really have any children. so, we wasted all the paper making signs for ourselves, hahah. it was cute, though! <3. i love christmas season. everyone is in such a lighter mood!
today i'm going to write my college essays. really. i am. i swear! and then at four i think i'm going to a birthday party with jackiep. hm.... i should call her! well, that's all i have for today. remember to be grateful, stop and say thanks. <3 love youuuuu
