Waking up to another day

The ability to make my own decisions

For my children and family

For strength and wisdom I gain everyday

For life's simple pleasures

Give Gratitude
 

I'm grateful for being able to realize that I have things, people and pets and to be grateful for having them. I'm especially grateful for my friends and my pets who love me and expect nothing in return. True friendship and real love are hard to come by and I am blessed to have both. I used to not think I had anything to be grateful for and would not even think of being grateful. Life throws us twists and turns and these have made me realize I have a lot to be grateful for and I value this realization.

I'm especially grateful for my two fur kids. Sugar and Sissy give me so much love and I return the love. Unconditional love is the best and the sweetest and I'm grateful for this.

I'm grateful for my brothers and my sisters here and on facebook and here in my hometown too. I'm grateful to have some very loving, caring, and kind friends.

I'm grateful today for a cousin whom I haven't seen or spoken to in quite some time accepting a friend request on facebook that I extended some time ago.

I'm grateful for my life. I just hope that I will be able to make a difference in others lives for the better. I'm grateful for the vision and knowing that is inside me that I will make a difference and I do have a purpose. I'm grateful to know what this purpose is now.

Everyone enjoy this day and may peace be with you.

I'm thankful and grateful for my religious upbringing and my Faith in the Lord. I'm grateful for my fur kids and the love they give me and I return to them. Grateful to own a home and all that is inside and outside of it along with my vehicles. Also, grateful for friends who understand me and get me.

Too many to list....
 

I am grateful that after years of crippling drought Georgia is finally getting much needed rain.

I am grateful that I have not just a job, but a career I love and believe in.

I am grateful that my child is healthy, happy and kind towards others.

I am grateful I learned a love of reading early on.

I am grateful I (usually) know the difference between a want and a need and thus have a happy and content life.

I am grateful for moments filled with friends and laughter.

I am also grateful for those moments of silent alone time.

I am grateful for this thread as reading these posts make me smile, and remind me of even more things I have to be grateful for.
