This morning our family had a moment of silence for those caught in the devastation in Japan one week ago today.  My heart goes out to my dear friends who have family there and also to those who aren't in my circle.  There is much to be grateful for and I often times don't say it or even think it enough, but I am so infinitely humbled by the blessings I have received in my life-a second chance at love (real love), a wonderful, compassionate husband who holds the priesthood , beautiful and healthy children, a warm and safe home, talents and abilities that enable me to serve others, wonderful and caring friends...the list goes on and on.  Today, please take a moment for our Japanese neighbors and friends.  There are many ways we can help just by serving those around us.  The American Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, and Convoy of Hope are all excellent organizations that have various ways to assist those effected by this disastrous earthquake and tsunami.
