Take a minute today and think of everything that you wish you could change about your life. A better job, a boyfriend, get rid of the clunker in your driveway, take a vacation, hope that you won't be bothered by an irritating family member, be skinnier, taller, have curly hair. Take all of that...think it through, and then spend a good 15 minutes and read the article below. Have a box of kleenex nearby. You'll need a hand to hold, a shoulder to cry on, and a pair of arms to wrap around you when you're done.
The Article.
Now think of everything important in your life that you would be lost without. Your parents. Grandparents. Legal guardian. Caretaker. Whoever it is, thank them for loving you from the moment you were born. And count your lucky starts that this article wasn't written about you. It's scary to think that there are probably other children suffering just the same who won't ever be saved.
Sorry for the downer today, but I think too many people take life for granted. I know I do.

It's stories like this that remind me how important my job is and how making lots of money is NOT as satisfying as saving and changing lives. Had it not been for my parents adopting me, this would have been me. How can I not live the rest of my life giving back? Thanks for the good link.
