Giving Thanks

I always hear people mock days like today and say, "We don't need a day to say that we are grateful. We are grateful everyday." Or something along that line. Yes, it is true that we are grateful everyday. However, I am sure in the madness and stress that is our everyday life, we do not take time out to thank people in our lives that we love and count all of our blessings. There is nothing wrong with taking days like Thanksgiving, or other days, to take time out and tell people how much you appreciate having them in your life, because it is true that at other times we forget. 

So today, I give thanks-

For my family,

For my friends,

For my health,

For my job,

For my LIFE.

And for anyone taking the time out to read this. You really don't have to. So thank you.

"Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.” 

― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy Thanksgiving.

I took this at the 9/11 Memorial. It makes you really grateful for life.
