My dad sent me this video.
Thought I would share it. Kind of makes me ashamed to be overweight (well, I already was ashamed, to be honest) and to live in a country of so MUCH. Everywhere we go in this country, the Wal-Marts, the Sam's Clubs, the restaurant PORTIONS, the stores with 40 different choices in LIPSTICK....
I remember seeing things when I was growing up that have given me a deep sense of gratitude, but also of shame, to live in such EXCESS.
Watch until the end, my Christian friends will probably like this.

What comes to mind is a verse from Luke that says, "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked." We have much and so should give like we do.
thanks for the reminder not only to be grateful but present in my daily choices, complaints, thoughts. this was right on time.
uh yeah. that was gross. but also necessary. it's true what our mother's used to say about not finishing our meal...there are starving people in the world who would eat that.
