Why, thank you... but It was awhile back —16 years ago: Monday, August 29, 2005. Though I lost my home, basically everything, I viewed it like a gift of understanding. I had brought down a van full of nutrition bars from Advocare™ (my sponsor) for survivors. When I went to check out what was left of my house, I saw my entire neighborhood washed away. I looked out to sea (The Gulf). It was same as always, but thousands of years ago —maybe before man. I grokked ("Stranger in a Strange Land") that each day, even that day, is a gift from the Big Guy Upstairs and that we're all part of something a lot bigger.
