I need to remind myself not to take the good things in my life for granted every single day. We're only human, but it's far too easy to become jaded and blind to the privileges in our lives. I think about how most of the human beings on earth live as compared to my life, and about just how damned lucky I am.
Last night I saw the movie Precious at our film festival, and let me tell you it really hit me.
