Be Thankful For

To be Thankful For…….

….the mess to clean 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.

….a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need
cleaning and gutters that need fixing because it means
I have a home.

….all the complaining I hear about our government
because it means we have freedom of speech.

…..the spot I find at the far end of the parking
lot because it means I am capable of walking.

….my huge heating bill because it means I am
warm.

…..the 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 I have clothes to wear.

…..weariness and aching muscles at the end of the
day because it means I have been productive.

….the alarm that goes off in the early morning
hours because it means that I’m alive.

…..getting too much email bogs me down but at
least I know I have friends who are thinking of me.
