be more thankful

i am belssed to be born in America. To have a job, to have a healthy family to have a great place to live. I feel like I shoudl be doing more. giving back. I dont feel like I have anythign to give.

I am thankful today that i have been able to accept something I cant change. I am also thankful for some much needed sales ( I am commision only) and some good news on some other fronts. i will try to take each thing that happens and sift through to find some positive stuff.

that life cant get any worse…it does. Right now i can only think of a couple things to feel grateful about. My children and I are all healthy.

Yesterday I watched people leave a banquent hall that is on the bottom floor of the office building I work in. They were all senoirs. Some of them active looking most hunched over needing assistance to walk. I am thankful I can walk. I can walk so I should not take that for granted. I should walk. When I walk I will walk tall and strong for as long as I can.

Life is short and unpredictable. Everyday is a gift. I have so much to be thankful for. Mostly I am thankful for my health and my kids health. I had open heart surgury when i was a baby that saved my life. How easy it would have been for the intern that day to overlook the small murmur he heard. I was given the chance to live a full life and I want to honor that gift everyday.
