What really matters?

What is really important in life? What matters the most to you? If you were to have something taken away from you tomorrow what would cause you the most pain through its loss? I know on a holiday weekend where everyone is out celebrating in the US...here I am asking questions like this. What is Freedom anyway and what do you have in your life to truly be grateful for?

I've sat here all day with these questions rolling around in my mind as I've listened to people make plans for cook outs and get togethers and as I listened I realized something. Most of the people couldn't get past the ketchup and hot dogs. This was simply a weekend that was an excuse to have the gathering. It wasn't about the people that they would be spending time with. It wasn't about the fact that they were able to have these gatherings. It wasn't about the fact that they had the freedom to pick and choose what they wanted to do.

So what is really important? What matters the most? For me... it is family...those closest to my heart. It is not the material things in life but those that touch deeper than the flesh. I am grateful for all who touch my heart.

When you're enjoying that hamburger or hot dog this weekend look at the person next to you and ask yourself...what do they mean to me. You might be surprised at some of the answers that you find yourself thinking. Even if you really don't know the person, send a silent blessing their way... "I wish you well". You'll be amazed at how you feel at the end of the day after so many blessings being sent. You'll find a smile in your heart and contentment in your soul. That hot dog will taste better and you'll end your day smiling. I wish this for each of you. Enjoy your weekend. Enjoy who you are.

Many hugs,
Dawn
