I am thankful for…
…the mess to clean up after a partybecause it means I have been surrounded by friends.…the taxes I paybecause it means that I’m employed.…the clothes that fit a little too snugbecause it means I have enough to eat.…my shadow who watches me workbecause it means I am out in the sunshine.…the spot I find at the far end of the parking lotbecause it means I am capable of walking.…all the complaining I hear about our governmentbecause it means we have freedom of speech.…that lady behind me in church who sings off keybecause it means that I can hear.…lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixingbecause it means I have a home.…my huge heating billbecause it means that I am warm.…weariness and aching muscles at the end of the daybecause it means that I have been productive.…the alarm that goes off in the early morning hoursbecause it means that I am alive.
There are three kinds of days:
- Good days,
- Great days, and
- Outstanding days.
I hope yours is Outstanding!
Steve
