We so often overlook all the good that we already have and year and bellyache about what we don't have. I am now in Mali, West Africa. Today we went to a place called Koulikoro along the Niger River, where they mine river sand for sale to the construction industry. I saw children about the age of my younger ones, toiling away in the burning sun, filling donkey carts with sand. All the trip back, I was deep in thought, thanking God, for having been given so much of a better life. It’s so true.
