Grateful for the Small Things

This is not going to be a wordy blog, but I thought in light of the events of yesterday it would be an important one.

The small things I'm grateful for:

* being able to spend time cooking a meal with the love of my life, Jennifer, then sitting down and enjoying it and some good conversation.
* spending some time with my mom and introducing her to the love of gourmet popcorn.
* having dinner and drinks with friends, even in the midst of flickering lights and raging rainstorms.
* being kept safe from a very NASTY storm.
* despite seeing trees knocked into streets and on top of houses and power outages, our street wasn't barely TOUCHED (a few small branches and some leaves in the street...that's all).
* getting to marry my soul's perfect counterpart in 15 days!

Find some time today to thank God for the small things He's blessed you with. It's the small things that keep us from being overwhelmed by the big things.
