Blessings

Sometimes I find myself stuck in ME world.  I never really take a look around me and see all the wonderful things I have been so blessed with.  It is almost like I have tunnel vision.  I don't think of myself as a selfish person, but when life up and humbles you in an instant, you open your eyes and really take a good look at all the many blessings that the Lord has given you. 
Well, that is me lately.  I have been blessed with more then I ever really took a moment to know.  I have an amazing family.  My gris are my heart and soul.  They fill my life with so much love and happiness that I could not ask for more.  I have been blessed with an amazing husband who loves his family.  I live in a beautiful city where there is a park on every corner and you can ride your bike for miles and miles and NEVER cross a street.  I have friends that know me and love me so much.  I have the gospel in my life.  I have an understanding of the plan of Salvation.  I have a Savior that died for me.  I have a fun job that I love going to each day.  I have amazing parents that do what they can whenever they can when the need is there.  I am so blessed to be in a ward that is so kind and loving and giving.  They don't hesitate, they just serve when the time is right.  I have blessings beyond what I ever saw and I am humbled by the love the Lord has shown me.  I have a beautiful temple just down the street from where I live, that I can go to for peace.  Where I can fully open up my heart to the Lord in prayer and thanksgiving. 
I have so much and I am thankful.
