I am humbled..

Yesterday I started reading this and realized how truly blessed I am. I have seen buttons for this blog on lots of other peoples blogs, but never really looked to see what the blog was all about. But yesterday I decided to read and see what this was all about. I realize now I have heard the story of the accident, but never connected the fact that this was the blog of the survior. As I began to go back and look through her archives I just became overwhelmed with the feeling of humility. This woman has so much she could complain about... she was in a horrific plane crash, her life was completely changed over night, her and her husband spent months in the hospital, she'll have surgeries the rest of her life and never look the same as she did before, yet in spite of all these things she really doesn't complain. I was so inspired looking through her blog and seeing how right after the accident one of the first post she made when she could was so light hearted about the fact that her daily routine in the hospital was less then ideal. I could not stop myself from crying. I was ashamed at the fact that I complain over simple, small things. I also kept thinking how grateful I was for the simple fact of human life. How grateful I am I'm alive and healthy and have 10 fingers, 10 toes, 2 eyes, both arms, both legs, a complete body that is healthy and strong. What do I have to complain about.... Nothing! That's the simple answer! I am blessed and I love my Heavenly Father for the simple, small trials he gives me. I am grateful I decided to look at her blog and I am humbled that she has shared her story with me.
