Focus on blessings
What a beautiful sight on Labor Day weekend as I rounded the corner coming off Old Mission Peninsula. What appeared to be hundreds (stretching it, I didn’t count) of large American flags, standing tall, waving proudly in the breeze as they lined the street along the edge of Bryant Park. My heart swelled with pride.
I caught my breath and breathed, “Thank you, God,” that we live in the most wonderful country in the world. Praise God for his blessing and “God bless the Red, White and Blue.”
I appreciate Kiwanis for reminding me how blessed I am. Join me in putting away the negatives and focus on our blessings. Karen Wood
Wade Van Houzen, president-elect for the Kiwanis Club of Traverse City, Michigan, was one of the chairpersons of the Kiwanis Flag Project. May our flag long wave, over the land of the free and the home of the brave!
