I am thankful for ......
. . . the mess to clean after a party because it means
I have been surrounded by family and friends.
. . . the taxes I pay because it means that I am 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 lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning because it means
I have a home.
. . .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.
. . . my huge air conditioning bill because it means I am cool.
. . . the baby behind me at church who cries because it means that I can hear.
. . . the piles of laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby.
. . . 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 I am alive.
This was shared with me and thought you might enjoy it!
