Re: Counting my blessings...Wow!

[Guest guest]

Kristy..Wow!......There always seems to be a bigger plan...this week has just

been jammed packed of inspirational news.....maybe all of us here just attract

events of this nature...events that help us to look beyond those incidentals

that are to be only considered as miniscule nuisances....it is these miraclulous

events that teach us to have and to hold that which we hold so very dear....I

woke up to your retelling of this incident...It is snowing gently....everything

looks like it is covered with powdered sugar.. Sydney is happily dancing to her

favorite TV show " HI-5 " .. the rest of my family is still in dreamland (not a

bad place to be)....it is truly a beautiful morning....and faith and belief that

God looks over us all, sends us our lessons and our gifts....gives us our

thoughts of appreciation....and the ability to stand back and say " WOW! " .....

Love to all.....have a miraculous day!

Hi Everyone,

This afternoon reminded me about just how precious life can be and what really

is important in life. Most of you in the United States have seen the national

news where the Texas City refinary BP Amoco exploded. My eldest son, Arron and

my father both work at this plant. Also, right before the explosion, my mother,

daughter-in-law, and one of my grandsons had just left the plant after having

lunch with Arron. When the explosion happened, Arron was just a little more than

a block away from the explosion. He was knocked down to the ground from the

blast, but not injured. My dad's office is not too close to where the explosion

is, but his office was shook and things fell off the wall. My mother,

daughter-in-law, and grandson had just left the plant, so they were uninjured.

So, I am thanking God tonight for keeping all of my family safe, because in just

a moment, I could have lost my entire family!

Just needed to share...

Kristy
