More

I need more sleep. It isn't a daily thing, just once and awhile, like today. I have basically been awake since 3 am. Now I am working an event Downtown Dallas until 1700. Long day. I feel a bit off. Maybe lack of sleep?

The event I am working is the Snowball Express, for families of fallen troops. It is sad. All of these families, around 1800, are dealing with loss of husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters. All have suffered a loss I can't understand nor do I want too. I am sure they all need more. More love. More understanding, more time with the loved one they lost.

It hurts to see some of them. For some, this is their first time. That means their loss is recent. But they are smiling. They are kind. They are in need and here we sit, trying to fill that need.

I have more. More than enough. More than I need. God has been good to me and those I love most are still just a phone call away. I am blessed and though I complain and always think I need more, in reality, I have enough.
