Honoring Our Good Fortune

"We could never have guessed We were already blessed where we are" . . . James Taylor

Is it possible that we are already blessed where we are?  It seems that we can either focus on what is wrong in our lives -- and there will always be some things that we would prefer were not part of our lives --- or we can focus on the manifold good in our lives --- and there will always be manifold good.  It is bitterly cold here now.  I started on my walk today and turned around after a few blocks because of the extreme cold.  I could either focus on that bad experience or I could  focus on the good:  Friends and family who love me and my loved one, safety and shelter and adequate food.   There is so much good.
