    Is making big bucks worth the price you pay?

        Lots of people focus on what is missing in their lives; the things they don't have. What is wrong 
    with what they already have? Do you have a roof over your head? Enough to eat? Are you grateful 
    for the blessings you have already have? Do you really need that bigger house or that new car?
    Think about it?

        In the small community of SouthWest, Va and NorthEast, Tn we have to think to ourselves; What
    is more important: Staying close to family in a neighborhood that is a great place to raise children or
    Move to a big city to live what the world sees as the "American Dream". 

        My husband and I chose to reexamine what we truly need. Do we need jobs far away to have an expensive car and a large home? Or can we make it here? Making sacrifices to ensure our children have childhoods like we did, with no worries of gangs, or drugs. Where doors are unlocked and neighbors watch and care about each other. Where you know your grocerer and pharmasist. 

        I have to say I am grateful for the blue sky and trees outside my window. For my family and friends who love me. What do you have to be thankful for? I am thankful that the AT trail and the creeper trail
    is within walking distance from my house and the Jefferson National forest is my backyard. I am thankful for my three sons that I am so proud of. 

        The music for today is by The Wind by Amos Lee, it is worth the listen and points out that fate can change your life so quickly, savor the good times they will get your through the hard times. Hug someone you love.
