Life is hard. There is no way around it. You make a plan and things change the plan. You put bread in the toaster and it burns. Hurting people you know experience more hurts and you feel at a loss. You give and give and the receiver wants more and more. You figure your bills before pay day and you are in the red before you even get paid. You learn a new truth and resolve to live by it only to forget it when you needed to remember it. Yes, life is hard. But then in the midst of life's trials . . . . . .
You spot a cockroach, a big one crawling along your kitchen ceiling. You do that squealing thing running for the can of roach spray you hope is in the laundry room. You aim at the roach and give it all you got. Without any maneuvering on your part, that roach falls directly into the kitchen trashcan so you can smother it with more spray followed by the lid. You giggle thinking how you got that roach and scored two points all in one swoop. Plus you didn't have to touch that yucky thing! That's when you thank God for the small things.
