Why do we take the normality's of everyday life for granted? * Why do we berate and grumble about our friends and family just as much as we remember to be thankful for them? * why do we hate our job until we don't have work anymore? * Why do hurtful words come easier than those of healing? * why is it easier to judge than forgive? * why do we forget to look up at the sky with white puffy clouds floating by, the sun shining, birds singing, a slight breeze whispering through the trees, and take a breath of fresh air and thank God for the day? * why do we let ourselves get so caught up and stressed about such trivial things that we forget to see the little joys and beauty all around us every day?
Why?
why do we not appreciate our health until we are sick and in pain? * Why do we forget to be thankful for our freedom until we experience persecution? * Why do we see ourselves as better until we are broken? * why do we not say the words of love we feel until it is too late? * why do we not care about what we have until it is taken away? * why do we wait until we are face down before we remember to look up?
... do we really need to ask why?
