My husband sent me this email from work and I think it is worth reading for everyone.  Enjoy!

Just wanted to take a moment during this crazy time of the year, to breathe and remember things happen for a reason...

The L I T T L E  Things...

As you might know, the head of a company survived  9/11 because his son started kindergarten.

Another fellow is alive because it was His turn to bring donuts.

One woman was late because her Alarm clock didn't go off in time.

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike Because of an auto accident.

One of them Missed his bus.

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.

One's Car wouldn't start.

One went back to Answer the telephone.

One had a Child that dawdled
    And didn't get ready as soon as he should have.

One couldn't Get a taxi.

The one that struck me was the man
     Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
     Took the various means to get to work
     But before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot.
     He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
    That is why he is alive today.


Now when I am
       Stuck in traffic ,
       Miss an elevator,
       Turn back to answer a ringing telephone .
       All the little things that annoy me.
        I think to myself,
       This is exactly where
       God wants me to be
       At this very moment..

Next time your morning seems to be
       Going wrong,
       The children are slow getting dressed,
       You can't seem to find the car keys,
       You hit every traffic light,
       Don't get mad or frustrated;
       It May be just that
       God is at work watching over you.  

May God continue to bless you
       With all those annoying little things
And may you remember their possible purpose.

Pass this on to someone else, if you'd like.
        There is NO LUCK attached.
