What I am Thankful for

I have been thinking a lot about this lately and feel the need to blog on this subject. Sometimes we take things for granted and don't appreciate people or things we have in our life.

I think we all can be a little bit more kinder in the world to everyone whether we know them or not.

I am thankful for My God
for my family
for my job
for my health
for having lived a good life
for my friends
for being able to have a wonderful hobby (scrapbooking & photography for those of you who don't know).


This year will be the first of many holidays I will spend without my Mother and I miss her dearly. I had her in my life 52 years and she lived a good long life. But I cannot forget all the other people who will celebrate the holidays without loved ones they have lost through sickness, war or other circumstances. I just want to say I am grateful and thankful to have had Mom with me all these years. I have my memories and that will get me and my Dad through the holidays.

Well, as I sit here crying I would just like everyone who reads my blog to think of something to be thankful for. I know the world is crazy and times are hard but at least you woke up this morning and were breathing. So go and do something nice for someone whether you know them or not. Because if everyone did just one nice thing a day the world would be a better place.

Hugs and
Take Care
Remember to do something nice everyday and be thankful
