Perspective

It’s all about perspective… I know an inmate that is perhaps the most grateful man in the prison. He is partially blind in his right eye, and deaf in his right ear. He cannot talk very well and has a heavy, broken English accent. Years ago, he took a life and was so grief stricken that he turned the gun on himself. He fired point blank under his chin, and the bullet went up under his eye, through his inner ear, and out the back of his head. Amazingly he survived… He ALWAYS tells me how much he loves God, and how much he loves me. I asked him why he was so happy and grateful. He told me that he did three years inside a Vietnamese prison when he was a teenager, and that this “Georgia Time” was the easiest he had ever done, and that it had led him to God (and this prison is the toughest in the state). Gratitude typically depends on perspective. Can you find reason to be grateful today? It’ll change YOUR world too.
