Thankful for my plight.

I look at my life this way. I’m much better off than millions of homeless refugees. Yes, I recognize that much of the world is in bad shape. Because of politics. And senseless conflagrations. But I’m lucky.  To be where I am. In a cold place called Minnesota.  But still, I stay warm. And live well. In comfort. Despite the fact that I wish for a better political, social and economic climate. Right here. And in virtually every place in the world.  Still, I have many, many reasons to be thankful. For my plight. If one can call it a plight. --Jim Broede
