As I sit here,  just coming in from a walk with my fur baby, Guinness, I realize how blessed I am.  I have no family that keeps in contact with me, I have very limited friends,  and I’m not that good of a girlfriend.   So it’s mostly me and my pal keeping each other company.  A simple walk around the block, saying hello to neighbors and picking up trash along the way. I’m trying to make this ugly world just a little bit brighter.   Being thankful for the little things we take for granted.  Being able to walk, having a good job,  a safe place to call home, and the love of a dog and Jesus.
