Today as I was getting up out of my warm bed, with the air conditioning cooling my house and getting in my shower, a thought crossed my mind. I thought about how lucky and blessed I was, and SO thankful that I had a shower to get into. I thought about all those poor souls in the Superdome, I thought about all those people who quite possibly are still stranded in their homes. I thought about all the people and the families of people who have lost thier lives to Katrina, and I said a prayer for them. I prayed for peace and comfort for all of them, and I thanked GOD for what I had. I thanked him for that shower. It is the little things that I know I take for granted, and then something like this wakes me up. Just the thought of getting a shower in a house that I was still so lucky to have brought tears to my eyes. Who knows how long it will before the Katrina refugees will even get to take a shower. So in the morning, or tonight when you step in that warm shower, say a prayer for all of those people who don't know when they will get one.
