Gratitude: Day 2

Our book club is currently reading These is my Words by Nancy Turner. It's about a woman who lives in the Arizona Territory late 1800's. Started a little slow, but now I can't seem to put it down. Good book!

With my gratitude thinking cap on, as I was reading this morning I kept thinking I'm so grateful I didn't have to do that or that or that as the main character did. So today, I am extremely grateful for the era that I live in. I'm sure I could have survived living back then, but I am so grateful that I didn't. I fully appreciate all our modern amenities - hot showers, electricity, cars, hospitals, etc.

I'm sure that my future posterity will look back at our current lifestyle and wonder how we ever survived, but I am gladly doing it, knowing that at least I have my heater and air conditioning. :)
