Good story. I'm reminded that any one of us could have our comforts removed in the blink of an eye, for a myriad of reasons from disaster, to bad luck. I'm grateful to God for every day that I have food to eat, and a warm safe place to sleep, and loved ones near by.

And all of us only have a tenuous grasp upon whatever health we have, including mental health. A stroke, or dementia, or an accident could leave us impaired. We humans are mortal, and ultimately very fragile.

To this day, I still have regrets about not doing more for someone - this was 24 years ago. I simply did not have it cross my mind. I would have maybe dropped $20-$25 at most. In those days, I would never have missed it. Not one bit. These days, LOL, well I saw a $20 earlier this week. I don’t dwell on it, but I have thought of it 3-4 times this year.

Things were going pretty well for me at that time. Evil corporation, LOL well, some of the folks I worked with but I always had plenty of money. I was living in abundance. Well, abundance for me. Of course I was working 15 hours a day. Not including my time on airplanes and driving to/from the airport. Back then it was known as a “Big 6” corporation.

A weird circumstance or two. Guess I was where I was supposed to be.

Your post is well worth repeating.

We have, only because the Lord allows it or grants it. The pompous and proud are the first ones to fall in battle.

Being Thankful to Almighty God is the least we can be.
