Yesterday I passed a teacher in the hallway and casually asked "How are you today?" as I walked by. Her answer surprised me: "Blessed."
Maybe her response is common in this area, but it was the first time I've ever heard anyone answer "How are you?" by saying "blessed." It made me think about how, regardless of how crazy of a day I'm having a work (even though that particular day was actually great), that I really do enjoy an abundant life. I'm so glad to have a college degree and a job. More importantly I'm thankful for a loving husband and family as well as the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

People in the south and east say that a lot. I miss all the answering machines that say "have a blessed day!" at the end... :)
