LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Life isn’t so miserable, really

Most of the time, people complain about their money problems, the weather, etc.

This is how simple life is:

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than millions who won’t survive the week.

If you attend a church meeting without fear of arrest, torture or death, you’re more blessed than almost 3 billion people in the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 15 percent of this world.

If you hold your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.

Life truly is simple and good. Try smiling each day. It doesn’t cost a penny.
