re: First grader in TX asks for a ball, food and a blanket from Santa

I think about the less fortunate often and it saddens me when I do. It makes it doubly sad when it's a child and during the holidays.
If we had to be reminded of all the people worldwide who don't even have basic necessities to live, we probably couldn't function with the guilt it would cause since we Americans have so much.
I thank God daily for all he blesses me with and I try not to ever be ungrateful.
