Yesterday...did gardening for 5 hours. Last night thought be sore but realized must be in better shape than imagined. I was looking at my hands and thought 'Wow, I am soo grateful for these, then...my whole body- how it's really served me and the damage done- yet it comes back strong as ever- a little slower now with age'.
I try to remain thankful daily of ALL I have..as meager as it all is because they're the right things in life to have.
I know am opening up a can of worms here for some to take and run with but what are you grateful for ?

When I was a child was so fascinated with my grandmothers hands. Thank you Gator- you seem a gentle spirit also.

since today IS canadian thanksgiving, i've already gone over a few things for which i'm thankful:

i am blessed to have been raised by a fantastic father and a wonderful mother who always parented us kids with a united front (and that would probably be the best advice i could ever give to parents).

i am blessed to be a mother to three incredible daughters who have shown me what unconditional love truly is.

i am fortunate enough to have the love of the strongest (yet most gentle) man that i've ever known and who has always supported any thought or action that i've had or done, even though he may not have always agreed with me.

i am thankful that i am financially able to provide for my family, put a roof over their head, food in their bellies, clothes on their backs and still manage to have a little bit leftover for some fun and frivilous activities.

i am also grateful for the fact that i am in good health and seem to come from a family with healthy genes as i intend to be around for quite a few more years.

I'm grateful I can survive. And of course, I'm grateful for the basics, family, friends, and work.

But i'm also grateful to have the ability to start to grow up (in so many ways over the last 4 years I've gone from drunk rebellious 20 year old party animal, to a 24 year old man with a sense of direction and purpose).

I know where i'm at, I know where i'm going, and what I want to do.
