Lately I have been thinking about responsible shopping, which got me thinking about from where my things originate, which got me thinking about disparities inside the world, which got me thinking about all that I have that mothers in many countries don't. Most of it pertains to the relative certainty of my life. Nothing in life is completely certain, but it is true that my life breeds fewer questions than it might had I been born elsewhere.
For these reasons, I am dedicating today's thank-full post to the questions I don't have to ask:
~ Will we have clean water tomorrow?
~ Will we have food on the table?
~ Will my daughter get to attend school?
~ Will my children have the freedom to choose their faith?
~ Will my daughter never have to engage in prostitution for survival?
~ Will my children work as slaves?
~ Will my husband have to go to war?
~ Will we have access to medical care?
~ Will my children be allowed to participate in their political system?
~ Will they have the freedom to speak their minds?
What questions do you not have to ask?
