After volunteering at PADS a few nights ago, I am much more grateful for what I do have. I love my bed, my clothes, my blankets, and especially the fact that I have a home. I am so grateful to be blessed with a loving family supported by a stable income. I am glad that I don't have to move from shelter to shelter.
Setting up beds and serving meals to those who were staying for the night really opened my eyes. Everyone I served food to was so grateful to be at the shelter. I realized that I am not always as grateful as I should be about being at my own home. I have so many luxuries and privileges that I don't appreciate as much as I should. That is going to change...
