How lucky are we to be here? I posted about Twitter the other day and after going back on there again today and being shocked to my core once more. After catching my breath again, I’ve realised how lucky I am.

How lucky I am to have a relatively normal family. Live a relatively normal life, in a relatively normal place with relatively normal friends.

How lucky I am to not have to worry about bombs going off or mass shootings. How lucky I am to not suffer from hate crimes on a daily basis. How lucky I am to not be impoverished. How lucky I am to have a stable job and place to live.

How lucky I am to have a wife and two kids. How lucky we are that everyone is healthy and happy.

Honestly. Whenever you’re having a bad day. Just think about how lucky you are to not be on the news.

I feel for the people I see on the news and on some of these awful videos on Twitter. I have no idea how I’d cope in those situations or if I knew some of those awful people. The world has some dark corners. But I’m happy that most of it isn’t like that.

I’m so happy I can even be writing on a blog. An outlet for the crazy that goes on in my head. A place to get over whatever happened in the day and whatever is going on around the world. I’m free!

Ok. So how was your day?
