Grateful


I am posting quite late this week. All of our services have been off and on for the past couple of days. Yesterday, the faucet of torrential rain was shut off and today we had our first sight of sun in nearly a week. I am not complaining about anything. This storm took lives, neighborhoods, roads and bridges. Not knowing when it would stop put everyone on edge.

Costa Rica suffered, but we were only enduring the side action of a pretty large storm. Reading the news this week was sobering. People are dealing with disasters all over the world. It just makes me grateful to have shelter from the elements. A home I feel safe in. It is a luxury to never take for granted. Disaster could knock on anyone's door.
