A Breath of Fresh Air

In a time when the majority of the world is worried about this ongoing economic downturn, it is refreshing to see that some are keeping things in perspective. I "stumbled" upon this today: (http://blog.statcounter.com/2008/10/).

I say "stumbled" because it was not a truly random google search or anything to that effect - I use statcounter to track my website statistics & read their blog occasionally - but that is neither here nor there...the important part is the message. While this credit crisis may be affecting all of us directly or indirectly, we are still the lucky ones. We have food, shelter, access to healthcare, and other freedoms that many do not.

If you are reading this, you ARE one of the lucky ones...take a moment to take stock of what you have & to consider those who are less fortunate than we are.
