One of my favorite sites for news is Yahoo.com. It has a great mix of politics, pop culture, and random facts. Today I ran across an article about the povery the US is facing, and interviewed people who are living in poverty due to the recession. Every day we hear about the job issue and recession because it's all over the news. But it really hits hard when you hear a personal story about someone who was doing so well for themself, and then slowly kept slipping until they ran out of options.
Please take time to read this story and the individual stories within the article. It makes me appreciate all that I have so much more, and is just another daily reminder that my life is wonderful.
