Tis the season! I am finding
myself smack in the middle of holiday season. Admittedly, they come and go so quickly but I have always loved the holidays.
There is a new feeling in the air that only comes this time of year. It blows though like the wind.
I love the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping, smells of pumpkins, turkeys, and Christmas trees, vacation time spent with
family and friends, delicious food only made this time of year, Christmas music playing in every retail store, new big movie
releases, and most of all holiday spirit.
Thanksgiving was made a holiday on Nov 1, 1777
“…for solemn thanksgiving and praise. That with one heart and one voice the good people may express the grateful
feelings of their hearts…”
In keeping with the spirit of Thanksgiving I thought I would write a list
of things I am thankful for in no particular order.
1. In these hard economic times,
I have a good job
2. My son, and what a fantastic boy he is
3. A good cup of coffee in the morning
(or a Redbull)
4.
Rain.
5. My Ipod.
6. My health
7. Tortilla
Soup that I just learned how to make
8. Days below 100 degrees
9. The close
relationships I have with my family
10. Good movies
11. Coming home to my very own house
12.
My close friends. My life would not be as
meaningful without you in my life
13. My passport
14. A clean house
15. Weather nice enough to hike most of the year
16.
Knowing he is just a plane ride away
17. 2nd chances. Sometimes 3rd and 4th
18. Lazy days
19.
My favorite TV shows
20. A weekend at the beach
21. Anything I need to know I can find on th
internet. And a lot of things I don’t.
22. Everyday I learn something new
23. Lots of laughter
in my life
24. My younger friends keep me feeling young.
And sometimes
old.
25. Moments when I have the clarity of thought to
acknowledge that
I can’t control
what happens – only how I react
26. Text
Messages
27. The closeness that social media provides
with my
extended network of friends
28. Sales
29. My gym – and actually going
30. People that
can still surprise me
31. That most people are thoughtful and kind
32. That each year just keeps getting
a little better
than the year before
33. I have mountain views from my
desk at work
34. Cool nights
35. My positive outlook on everything
I know I have at least
100 more things I am thankful for…. What are you thankful for?
