Grateful to Not Be Them…

Russia invaded the Crimean Peninsula in the Ukraine this week and then had an vote to see if the Crimean’s approved.  An astounding 92% of the voters were in favor of becoming Russian ASAP!  A Malaysian plane went off course by thousands of miles two weeks ago and has yet to be found.  An Afghan police station was attacked earlier today leaving at least 18 people dead.  Turkey blocked Twitter access on their internet.  The drought in California is knocking farmers into dry irrigation ditches.


I am grateful to be in Bellevue with running water, electricity, no danger of being invaded by foreign militaries, not lost at sea, and a snowpack that is about 105% of normal.  There are a lot of experiences out there that I don’t want to endure.  I might not have done much today, but I definitely don’t want any part of those hardships.
