Did you ever notice that from the time we were little kids, we’ve been counting - something or other. The days until summer vacation. The hours til you’ll see him, and then, how long are his parents going to stay? You’re how many days late? Counting push-ups at the gym, calories, carbs, the money in your wallet, the time on your hands, the notches on the bedpost, sheep . . . and with any luck at all, your blessings.
