So incredibly blessed

As the heat has been rising I've been overwhelmed by the simple reality that I only have to experience the heat for about 30 minutes a day. The rest of the time I'm in climate controlled locations, both at work, at home, and at the gym.

I'm baffled by how little my life is influenced by the weather. And I'm not quite sure how comfortable I am living such a comfortable life. That said, another alternative isn't presenting itself at the moment, and the comfort of our first home together is truly tremendous. While we aren't rich, we never have to worry about food being on the the table, surviving the elements, or wondering if we'll be able to have decent health care. The convenience is simply overwhelming to me and I'm deeply grateful for it. That said, I'm on the look-out as to how to use our abundance to bless and enrich the lives of others. Not quite sure how we're best equipped for that, confident however that God will show us the way.

In the meantime, I'm fighting allergies that are simply being pesky and inconvenient, with constant stuffage. It's a frustrating irritant and I'm looking forward to them being gone!
