Vision (Mar. 19)

The sense of sight and having clear vision is something that we daily put our trust in and to so extent take forgranted. On the one hand it is certainly the one sence that we are willing as a society to spend the most money keeping in tact, hearing only slightly less so. There are eye doctors and now with laser corrective surgery there is no extent to the amount of money that you can spend to keep your eyes working properly. And what happens in the instance where you cannot see, if only for a moment, when you think you should be able to see? There is panic. But how thankful are you for the moments when you can see? It is almost just an expectation that you should be able to see. That expectation keeps you from being thankful for what you can see. Let this serve as a reminder to be thankful for the fact that you can see, if you can, and to be thankful for what functions your body can perform, whatever they might be.
