This morning we had to stay inside because of the weather. I got to say a prayer with each of my children. I helped them to watch our Saturday morning religious programming.

I got to go to a meeting tonight.

I am grateful that I got to go buy glasses today.
I am grateful that I got to eat crab cakes for breakfast and steak for lunch.

Today I saw people at the optical store behaving like spoiled tyrants. I thought about how people in society today have things so good that they essentially live like kings. I thought about how I as a child used to feel like I should have been born into royalty. I used to think it might be evidence of reincarnation. I realized also that is why I had a problem with self-centeredness.

Thanks be to God.
