Blessed

Tranquil light zig-zagged it’s way through my partially open shutters softly warming my skin.
My eyes opened slowly.
The sun began to illuminate everything surrounding me.
My thoughts skipped away to those on the streets, hot and hungry, wanting something to eat, some place to sleep.
And I clenched my favorite fuzzy blanket tighter–
Privilege.
Peace.
Disbelief.
God chose this life for me.
