When I was given a cane, I cried. Before long I was given a walker, I cried. Next I was given a manuel wheelchair, I cried. Finally I was given a hoveround, I cried. I cried everytime I was given anything for RA. Medicines, handicap sticker, etc. Then one day after praying and begging God for help it was as if He spoke to me and said, "Look around you. I have given you the cane, walker, and wheelchair so you could get around. I have given you the meds to controll your illness and pain, I have given you the handicap sticker so you can get out of the house. I have heard your prayers and answered, it was you that didn't see them." From that moment on, my attitude changed and I saw all "my help" through different eyes. I was so blinded by my tears I couldn't see the very things I had prayed for. I don't have to use the hoveround constantly, but when I do I have become thankful. Same with all my meds and devices related to RA. I bet I cried a millin tears. But when my eyes were opened I bet I have smiled a million times more than the number of teardrops. Hugs

I love this.........I guess we all need to be more greatful.
We all think we deserve more, that we should be always healthy and pain free...but its not the case....things happen in life.......maybe we can look a little at our lives and see that we really are blessed!
