Changes

I don't have to tell you life is full of changes. You already know that. But what do you do when something in your life changes and you don't even realize it? It's an odd feeling when something changes about or around you and you think, "How did I miss that?"

Case in point for me was a couple of weeks ago I had been having foot trouble where it was painful to walk; had been to the foot doctor, got a painful cortisone shot in the second toe, and still the pain wasn't getting better. Part of what they discovered was a broken bone in my second toe but the shocking thing was when I went to the shoe store to get some shoes I could walk in. I have always worn a 10 and 1/2D shoe. I have a closet and garage full of shoes and boots in that size. Imagine my surprise when the lady measured my foot and told me I wore a 13D!! My first thought was, "No way, I've always worn a 10 and 1/2 D." My second thought was "No wonder my foot hurts." Of course my family all made fun of me for being such an idiot.

I wonder what person or thing touching your life has changed and you're not aware of it. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate and not take things or people for granted. You know, don't assume just because that's they way it's always been that it must still be that way. There's a good possibility things have changed and you need to be made aware of it.
