Most of on this forum have one or more hotrods in the garage, we have electricity, we have access to the internet, I'm pretty sure if we have those things, we have indoor plumbing and a dry place to sleep. .......I guess we're not doing so bad after all.

So true. So true.

I think for many of us, at one time or another, we all had to live in some hard times. When I was with my 1st husband we didn't have a lot, but we had a '69 Charger and we just barely scrapped by. But, in my lifetime I have faced foreclosure, eviction, shut off of utilities, and being homeless. I think after all of that we all learn what is important. Like you said, we need to focus on how lucky we are, and what we DO have. Now we need for our children to understand this.
