MY GRATITUDE JAR 2-5-17

-



I created a “Gratitude Jar”!
Sickness plagues my body.
Because of all these illnesses in my body, my emotions are all over the place.
My life is an unpredictable and as unstable as my physical and emotional state.
I also live in a time in which the world has taken upon a new craziness.
In the midst of sickness, adversity, pain and craziness, I put together a “Gratitude Jar”!
I put in this jar many papers of blessings.
Yes, God has blessed me and blessed me abundantly!
I have so much to be grateful for.
I have been blessed by having a family who loves me and whom are there for me.
I am especially indebted to my mother who still helps me out in so many ways.
I am so appreciative to have loving friends who are loyal and supportive!
I am filled with gratitude for the doctors, nurses, chaplains, respiratory therapists and for everyone at the hospital I go for my medical care.
These compassionate, hardworking and loving souls always steer me to the path of stability and wellness.
I am beholden to the church I attend.
My church family continually prays for me, as well as being loving and supportive in so many ways.
My minister is not only my spiritual advisor but, has become a dear friend and a major support in my life!
I am awed by all the people in my life that have brought me to where I am today!
I do have today, my dear family, friends and helpers!
Today is full of moments I can never relive.
I have choices to make.
Despite all the wrong going on in my body and the craziness that exists in this world, I choose to see the good in people and in the world.
I choose to make today “a superlative day”, “a great day” and “an awesome day”!
I choose to honor God and thank Him for all He’s given me!
I choose to see God’s Wonders, Miracles and His Majesty in today!
“His (God’s) goodness and mercies are renewed every morning!”
With sincerity, love, prayers, hope and peace,
And with gracious gratitude to my God,

The Medical Profession: Problems 5-6-2024

Serious Problems That Circulate Among The Medical Profession There have been countless advances in the medical field. These fascinating evolutions have saved my life and the lives of countless others! These medical miracles have improved the lives of multitudes and have also created paths of wellness in the lives an infinite number of others! Though this is fascinating news and it all benefits humankind, there are serious problems in the presentation of medical treatment. How medical professionals communicate with their patient(s)  can steal the worth and good out of these medical miracles. Through these medical marvels are wondrous, it feels to me that needed changes need to brought forth in how well these medical professionals  communicate with their patient(s). People with serious and chronic health conditions, especially those who require more medical care and treatments, like myself,  know well that  the Healthcare System needs improvements that would benefit th...
