I used to jog every day and call it my 'gratitude run.' I'd make my gratitude list as I ran. I never ran out of things to be grateful for. My knees aren't what they used to be, but I still do my gratitude list every day.

Watch our children while they kill each other with guns they bought at Wal-Mart.

Music really becomes the soundtrack to the major events to your life.

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away.

Being diagnosed with a possibly life-threatening disease is so jarring and for me to know that God had me in his hands, I never felt alone.

So what if right now everything is wrong?

I'm still the king of me.
