Has my education been so shallow that I
have forgotten the horrors of war and the millions whose blood drained
out of lifeless bodies, to be absorbed by earth's thirsty soil or
diluted by its salty seas...just to purchase for me the freedom I now
enjoy that cost me nothing.
And I have only begun, having not touched the most
important of all: that I can remember to remember..even if it takes a
public holiday to jar my memory, for many with Alzheimer's cannot
remember anything at all. And that once I find something to be thankful
for, I can express it. For so many cannot speak or write, cannot see to
walk or even to talk.
Perhaps, just perhaps, I might uncover to myself just how
unthankful a human I have become after taking all these things,
and thousands more for granted. The most important of them all
being....
God's willingness to forgive ungrateful, forgetful,
complaining and selfish me.
