Prophet Appreciation

My kids don't read my books. Shouldn't that be somewhere in the fine print of the offspring contract? My husband's only read two. Is that grounds for divorce? I know a prophet is not without honor except in his own town, but sheesh...gimme something to work with here, people.

Of course, authors aren't the only ones who are under appreciated. What about the lowly barista who has to haul his heinie out of bed to open the shop and make sure the java is brewed by 6:00 a.m.? Or how about the widget maker who works third shift and doesn't remember what the sun even looks like? And let's not forget about the monkey cage cleaner at the zoo. They're small, but powerful stinky. Is a simple thank you too much to ask?

Nope, it's not. So today, make it a point to value someone in your life. This doesn't have to be a big deal or hit you hard in the pocketbook. Just a simple, "Hey, thanks for all that you do. I appreciate you."

Let's start an appreciation revolution. That is your assignment. Share the love in the comment section by telling us who you valued.
