The View

I never thought, even with all our saving and working hard, that we'd ever be able to own a little bit of land and a house with a view as good as this one.
When I open the curtains in the morning, seeing this just makes me happy. I am a lucky man to have everything I want in life!

  2. We also feel blessed about our place, although sometimes forget to stop and look. Thank you for reminding me of how lucky we are as well.

  3. And while you hold onto that feeling and revel in it every day, you will continue to thrive and be well.

  4. Imagine all the people who have seen that land over thousands of years and enjoyed the view. It is nice especially when you are on your own piece of it.

  7. what an amazing view. I bet you just look out there and sigh. Family all tucked up inside warm and loved. Animals all in their coop. I bet you there isn't a better feeling than that. I am striving for this myself.
