First, I am thankful for the life I live. God gave me life and the challenges that comes with this is worth its weight in gold. No matter the hardship it brings, it is still my life and the manner I choose to live it is up to me.
I am thankful for my kids. Because of them my life has immeasurable meaning. They give color to my world that sometimes can be so harsh.
I am thankful for my grandchildren. They are the apple of my eyes. When I am feeling down, I only have to look into their eyes and happiness becomes a given. From them, I always have unconditional love.
I am thankful for my husband. Without him, I am nothing. Through good times and in bad, he has been there. No matter how evil I get, he puts up with me. He has sparked the competitiveness in me that allowed me to overcome the challenges and succeed in my life.
I am thankful for my brothers and sisters. They are to me an important part of my life. In times I needed a lift no words had to be mentioned, they're presence alone makes me whole.
I am thankful for all my nephews and my nieces. That they have become true to themselves and makes their parents proud.
I am thankful for my Mama. Without her there will be no ME. From her, I've learned what it is to truly be a MOM and how special that title is!
I am thankful for my Papa. He is the other half that makes ME. He has shown me the true meaning of what courage is. To face challenges as it comes and concur it. To learn from your mistake and move on in the right direction.
Mostly, I am thankful to GOD. Because He has blessed our family with abundant riches. Not physical or monetary riches but riches we can carry with us in our hearts forever.
I am thankful for HIM because he showed us there are such things as miracles. HE heard our cries and painful prayers during those dark days when we thought we would never be again with Papa. How else does one explain when he brings our Papa back to us and just in time to celebrate a wonderful holiday and possibly more holidays to come!
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving...let's all reflect and find the true meaning of Thanksgiving.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!
