The storms that came through Illinois today, leveling neighborhoods, damaging houses and uprooting trees came through our town. Thankfully it had not gained its strength and power and we only received minor damage.
Each day that goes by I am thankful for different things, today I am thankful that I have the opportunity to be thankful tonight.
We go through life sometimes, not thinking, not caring, not blinking an eye at the things that happen all around us.
During this holiday season: let's all do better to make it what it's supposed to be about. Because life is too short and the unpredictable can happen when you least expect it.
I know I need to do better to think more about life, family, friends and giving to others.
My thoughts and prayers to those affected by the storms in Illinois.
