What Are You Thankful For?

Gráinne · 11-24-2016, 12:34 AM

It's been a challenging, often difficult year, but there is much to be thankful for:

*I found my niece, and we had a wonderful reunion after 40+ years in March.
*That same trip, with my kids. Even with some squabbling, I'm so glad we did that. It might have been the last time before both of them go off on their own adventures.
*I have great health, even while being well-padded, for my age.
*The opportunity to study something new next year and to realize a long-standing goal
*My home, which is becoming my retreat and my haven
*The gift of being a cook, and food to cook with.

I'm thankful for the failures and things that didn't go well, because I learned so much about myself through them. I learned how strong I really am.

I can't really think of one thing in my life that I'm not thankful for.

I'm thankful for having a job, enough to eat, a place to live, my wonderful spouse, I'm thankful she is still with me and able to walk with her walker, my 3 dogs, all the little things in life that really matter.

I'm thankful for the tiny bit of rain we got

The merest sliver of a moon shining through the trees

The happy wonder of absolute quiet that exists just before dawn...

Very Blessed
I have a warm home a reliable truck a job that pays me well. God blessed me with a great family and abundantly blessed me with friends, my chosen family.

God has blessed me so richly and He sends people and animals across my path that keep me humble. Always providing accordingly so that I may share my blessings.

For this today and every day I am thankful.

I'm thankful for my cozy home, my open and loving family, my dogs that get me up and going every morning at 430,and my opportunity to advance my education...and never being to old to learn or love.
