"Prayers are always answered"........so the saying goes. A special little plea goes out for a gentleman I heard today was in rehab. WHAT?! I didn't even know he drank let alone know that he's been down this road three times previous. Sort of one of those deals where I always sort of envied this family..... He and his wife always at school functions supporting their two children. Lovely home, ect. ect. And the whole time when I seen him in public I never seen him drink. This came out of the blue and really saddened me deeply and still having difficulty digesting this truth. They just seemed to have it all. Now......well he lost a very good job and it is uncertain what else. Maybe a combined a simple little, "please help him" will get him on the path to sobriety and to give his family strength as they go through this as well. To all the newcomers......you are already in my prayers. WELCOME!
We just never know what someone else is going through do we? The people we admire, envy or are jealous of, all have their own trials to go through.
I always try to keep in mind that although I may have troubles, there are others out there that have it worse than me. This helps me keep a thankful heart because life could be a whole lot worse!
