I had to share how very fortunate most of us are......
This picture sure makes you think about your personal situations.
It reminds me of when my son was born two and half months early. For almost six weeks he was in a neonatal intensive care unit with quite a few other premature infants. Our son was the smallest baby the day he was born at a little over three pounds - small but overall in good condition and healthy.
The next day an infant was born that weighed less than 1000 grams. He was smaller than the size of a dollar bill, was on a ventilator, and had tons of other problems. At that moment I realized that we were actually very lucky to have a three pound premature kid with very few issues.
I guess what I am saying is that sometimes, not always but sometimes, our “problems” or “issues” may not really be that big of a deal in the whole scheme of things.
