I know I am...

In the midst of war, I am home and in one piece.

In the midst of recession, I have a good job.

In the midst of so much ill-fortune, I have a healthy and whole family.

In a world full of despotism and authoritarianism, I live in a country that still maintains a high level of freedom.

I can understand why our forefathers felt they were especially blessed to be here. I feel so too.
