two thoughts for today

February 12, 2009/Miscellaneous

Ainsley was rubbing her nose today and some icky stuff came out. I asked her if she needed a tissue. She said, in her sweet little toddler voice, “No” and proceeded to wipe said icky stuff on her pants. 

Now on to more important matters….heard this quote from a friend today. 
“When we grumble and complain about our every day lives we mock and insult those who are truly suffering.”  
Wow! Made me think of those without running water, starving children, those who walk the dumps in Brazil to find FOOD, those being killed, raped and persecuted for their faith. Boy, am I spoiled.

    Suny, the quote is by Henri Nouwen. I paraphrased it…
