Being poor is...
Thanks to Nabby's mom for posting a link to John Scalzi's Being Poor post. It's stuff I remember identifying with when I was a kid. I'm no longer "there" but I understand it just takes one or two events to put me back there, and so I am grateful everyday for what I have today, and hope real hard that I will still have at least the bare essential tomorrow.

It really is poignant. We are all closer to losing all we know than we really ever stop to think about.
What an amazing post. I've never had to experience being truly poor, and reading that reminds me of how rich I am even though I pout and whine about not having enough.
