Not Being a Field Laborer

Yesterday I worked out in the yard.

I will do so again today.

I did a lot of bending over, stooping, being on my knees.

It was hard, hard work.

I thought of people picking strawberries, lettuce, carrots, etc.

And, I felt a mound of gratitude for them.

I was only outside for awhile; I'll only be outside today for awhile.

And, it made me grateful for those who do that hard, back-breaking work.

It made me even more grateful that that is not my job.

Oh, I am grateful.
