I was driving down the road completely stressing over everything about the wedding. I know my blood pressure has risen over the past two months. But then something happened that put everything into perspective....
I passed a man pushing a shopping cart that had everything he owned in it.
Think about it. I feel completely selfish.

While out with FH tonight looking at hotels to block for OOT guests there was a man standing on the LIE exit ramp with a sign that he was homeless.
All day, Monday-Friday I work for a not-for-profit agency representing people with AIDS. Last year, 5 of my clients died. I see pain and misery every single day of the week. Stressing over my wedding keeps me sane.

Im right there with ya. Im a social worker and I work with lots of families and children who have literally NOTHING. Its hard to see people in such terrible situations, but it helps me understand how wonderful my family and friends are

I agree, when you hear or see things like this it makes you realize how greatful we all should be and that we should not take life for granted or sometimes too seriously.

It's so true...
We often take for granted all the things we have in our lives yet we should be blessed.
