"Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some." ~ Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

Ahh, there, you see, Leona....you are participating in this holiday with us! It is a great quote and one that I have spent a good portion of time on already today (although I have never before read the quote.) In my disc-changer I have five cds of Cindy Morgan playing, and so you can just imagine how filled I am with gratitude for all that I have and all that God has blessed me with. You know, upon reflecting I keep going to your most recent song. I have spent a lot of time thinking about where I have been, and where I have come from. All the tears and the pain and the hurtful experiences. And I have been thinking a lot about the day that Jesus broke through my hard heart and came flooding in with His raging, passionate, furious love! I've been thinking a lot about the opportunities that exist to share that love with others; like the work that I do as a volunteer at SafeNet. Your song is the meaning of it all, and expresses very well what we are here for. We have been blessed with so much! Thank you for the quote!
