52 Blessings Project, #16

It's always hard to say things like this for fear of sounding trite, but I'm feeling thankful that we live in a place where there's freedom and peace.


I just finished reading The Kite Runner. A good, but somber, book. Have you read this book? If you have, you'll know why this is on my mind.

That book and A Thousand Splendid Suns definitely left me feeling thankful for freedom, safety and peace.

Yes, that book was haunting.

Yes! That book and A Thousand Splendid Suns both made me feel that way, more than I have ever felt before. It's wonderful to feel safe and to be able to make so many decisions about how we spend our time and our lives. Especially as a woman, we enjoy so many more freedoms than women in countries like Afghanistan.
