Woes...

In my mind's eye, I can't help but see this HUGE dark gloomy shadow that is hovering above the world right now.

On a global scale, nothing sounds positive and in the instances where there is a glimmer of hope, the situations feel like an uphill task, trudging along a significant depth of sludge....

Was reading the papers today and I feel sadden by the articles that are appearing in the news. No doubt the media provides a pin hole through which consumers peer through, I can't help but imagine that this pin hole is only a pin hole (as what a pin would depict). Trying to get a grasp of the world picture would be something that is UNIMAGINABLE...

On a micro-level, articles I read this morning were sharing stories of families in financial trouble, kids who are unable to go to school due to money woes, children going through sexual abuse, financial scams cheating folks of their life savings, incessant increment of unemployment rate, loss of homes... What more is there... I wonder...

With conditions like these, I can't help reminding myself every single day to count my little blessings... To thank God for whatever that He has laid before me... To take the good with the bad because my 'bad' is not the worst...

And to everyone I know... Thanks for being a part of my life... You guys make up who I am... =)
