Daily Gratitude Journal


Today is the 47th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Regardless of your political viewpoint, his murder was a crime, a dark page in the annals of American history.

I was a freshman in college, and we were stunned and horrified at the news. It was like an end of something innocent, and an introduction into the sometimes bleak world of adulthood.

But I am grateful that our nation has a system in place so that the violent death of a leader does not spell anarchy and doom. Grateful that we can count on order amid potential chaos.

God bless America!
