I am Thankful for

I found this in one of my earliest journals and I think it still rings true today.....Maybe y'all can think of more to add to it :)

My sponser sent me this and I wanted to share it with all of my friends!

I am thankful for==================I am thankful for . . .

The partner who hogs the covers every night, because he/she is not out with someone else.  

The teenager who is not doing dishes but is watching tv, because that means he/she is at home and not on the streets.

For the taxes that I pay, because it means that I am employed.

For the mess to clean after a gathering, because it means that I have been surrounded by friends and loved ones.

For the clothes that fit a little too snug, because it means I have enough to eat.

For my shadow that watches me work, because it means I am in the sunshine.

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

For all the complaining I hear about the government, because it means that we have freedom of speech.

For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot, because it means I am capable of walking and that I have been blessed with transportation.

For my huge heating bill, because it means I am warm.

For the lady behind me in church who sings off key, because it means that I can hear.

For the pile of laundry and ironing, because it means I have clothes to wear.

For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day, because it means I have been capable of working hard.

For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours, because it means that I am alive.

And finally . . .For too much e-mail,because it means I have friends who are thinking of me. When you think your life is so bad, read this again.~Author Unknown~

There is always another way to look at something!

God Bless
