I am thankful for:
... the mess to clean up after a party because it means
I have been
surrounded by friends.
... the taxes I pay because it means that I'm employed.
... the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means
I have enough
to eat.
... my shadow who watches me work because it means I am out
in the
sunshine.
... the spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
because it means I am
capable of walking.
... all the complaining I hear about our government because
it means we
have freedom of speech.
... that lady behind me in church who sings off key because
it means that I
can hear.
... the piles of laundry and ironing because it means my
loved ones are
nearby.
... the lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning
and gutters that
need fixing because it means I have a home.
... my huge heating bill because it means that I am warm.
... weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day
because it means
that I have been productive.
... the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours
because it means
that I am alive.
Pass this along to all your friends and loved ones to remind us
all that no
matter how much we may not like something, or hate to do
something, we are
better off then someone else.
