I'm grateful for people, religious and non religious alike who work to better humanity, for the sake of bettering humanity, either with no religious motivation, or as a sort of big "thanks, buddy" for being alive.

The first thing I asked my mom this morning was if Jesus had seen his shadow or not. (Being a ministers wife, she didn't find it funny.)
