The store shelves have always been full, the inventory in most stores has been over the top and if you wanted something, you could find it in any number of places and even take it home with you. In my lifetime, it has always been that way. But there have been times in our country's history when there have been shortages and some items were scarce or unavailable at all.
. Unfortunately, we are experiencing another period of such scarcity. Partly because of less access to imported goods and cutbacks in American production, we are seeing empty shelves, back-ordered products and longer waits for building projects and skilled trades people to do the work we are unable to do ourself. The Land of Plenty is not a label we can put on America at the moment
But, we have to know that if it's tough for us, it is probably even tougher elsewhere. We are still the comparative Land of Plenty in the world, blessed beyond measure and we need to keep our chins up, stay the course and know that not only better times, but the best times, are still ahead.
