Kathy's post and point is well-taken about our perspectives about life.
Last year I bought myself a Christmas present: a book called Material
World. Have you seen it? It has pictures of all of a family's possessions,
with a picture of the family, and a short interview with the photographer.
The photographers journeyed all around the world to take these pictures.
I frequently get it out and just meditate over the photos and essays. When
I am feeling ungrateful, all I need to do is grab this book and realize that
we have what we really need -- food to eat, a roof over our heads, love from
the people around us, and nobody shooting at us. That's it.
Thanks, Kathy, for reminding us.
