To the person feeling it, there is no big or little; it just is. Many people were affected by that earthquake and its after effects, but you were affected by your own circumstances too. It's OK to embrace the bad mood sometimes and not have to justify it away.<br /><br />For the sake of this prompt though, I thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and reminders of being thankful!So Who Is The Crayon Wrangler?https://www.blogger.com/profile/10085121764324581283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14632274.post-90270720647045110522011-03-11T17:51:31.250-05:002011-03-11T17:51:31.250-05:00This is such a good reminder in light of what we a...This is such a good reminder in light of what we all woke up hearing today-it puts everything into perspective.<br />My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan today too.Valerie Boersmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08372768206512562126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14632274.post-56334433405567135832011-03-11T17:50:55.704-05:002011-03-11T17:50:55.704-05:00You got flooded?
