Things I am Thankful for

It's that time of year again. Most of the time I don't share the things that I am thankful for, but this year I will.

First and foremost I am thankful for family. I don't know about you, but I don't always appreciate the unsolicited advice and etc. that I get from my family. Although we don't always see eye to eye, I still love them dearly. I would not have returned to Fayetteville, NC had it not been for the fact everyone I love lives here. My mother, grandmother, my children, my brother, and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Everything that makes me who I am is right here.

I am also thankful to be an American. I know it sounds corny, but there is no greater place to live in this world. I am fortunate to have grown up with the diverseness that being in such close proximity to military bases brings. I pray for our soldiers and airmen everyday.

I am thankful for the company that I work for. I appreciate the training and support that I receive from my broker-in-charge and my co-workers.

And last but not least, I am thankful for relatively good health for a mature woman.
