Life Is So Different For Many

There's a little boy currently living in the homeless shelter I go to every week who is cross-eyed. Today, he was pretending to smoke a cigarette as we were playing, and he thought it was really fun and funny. He offered me a cigarette, too, and the only good thing I could think of was that at least it wasn't something worse then a cigarette. This cross-eyed little boy living in the homeless shelter is probably about four years old.

There are moments in my life when I realize just how incredibly blessed I am and how different life is for so many people across the globe. That boy pretending to smoke a cigarette was one of those moments.
