Vacation

The word is majestic, don't you think? To be off work, yet still be getting paid. It's the American way.

I don't have to get up super early...don't have to go to bed super early...don't have to do anything I don't want to do.

Yep, vacation. It's the good life.

Think I'll lose weight this vacation. Start running again, instead of just walking. And after my vision yesterday, might start swimming!

Good thing we get to take a break every now and again. To unwind. To release.

The good life. Glad I was born in the U.S. where opportunity is everything but a guarantee for success. Where I can give it my all and feel good about what I did at the end of the day. Where I don't wait on someone else to provide for my needs, or bail me out when I've made poor choices.

I do love my country...and I am worried about the moral choices we as a country are making of late.

Someone once said that if God does not destroy the U.S., he will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah. The land of the free makes poor use of its freedom at times.

May God bless and keep you and your family safe tonight. Pray for the children who are scared and hungry.
