What Would Be Worse?

How many of us take things for granted?  *raises hand* I am a number one granted taker.  I suppose I was built by design to be one.  So my question to you is

What would be worse ----

Losing your fingers or your toes?

Losing your hand or a foot?

Losing a leg or an arm?

Not being able to speak or not able to see?

Loss of hearing or your sense of smell?

I guess if we were really fortunate we were born with all of the above - 10 fingers, 10 toes, two eyes, two ears, nose, two legs, two feet, two hands, two arms but what if we lost any of these today?  I say again I take things for granted.  I complain about my freckles, my big nose, my plumpness & all are very, very small in comparison to someone who has lost a leg or an arm.  Something else I cry & kick dirt about is cleaning my home but the other side to that is  I am glad I have a home to clean & can physically clean it (but if anyone wants to get me a maid service as a gift, well I'd be very obliged).

Once upon a time in a land far away I worked with man who said "you feel sorry for yourself because you have no shoes until you see someone with no feet".  I doubt these words were originally born from his mouth but it lit something in me - how right he was & how bad it could be.

Christ, you're upllifting. Pass the prozac LOL

I read a quote similar which said" I was feeling the blues because I had no shoes,
until upon the street I met a man with no feet.'

Two men behind bars,one looks out and sees the mud, the other the stars.

We don't seem to miss something until we lose it. We take things for granted.

I think we take people for grantly mostly.

Some assume they can treat us certain ways and then wonder why we leave them or have nothing to do with them. And then it's then we realize we had a "blessing" and we threw it away.

I think I would want to lose toes over fingers cuz I transcribe for a living.

But I think I could live easier without my hand/arm than my feet/legs.

But rule of thumb is u don't miss something until u lose it, the wise person realizes this before it happens.

Have a blessed weekend.
