Sometimes, the simplest things in life are the best.
A thanks is one of the simplest best things in life. Anyone is capable of offering it, from a 2-year-old child to a 90-year-old.
It doesn't cost a penny, yet it can warm the heart of the recipient like a diamond ring.
Today, Thansgiving 2008, I have much to be thankful for.
I am thankful that my wife, and my six beautiful children, are all waking up under the same roof on this Thanksgiving Day. I have a 13-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter, so I know this will change soon enough. So, for now, I am blessed to enjoy another chaotic, thunderous Thanksgiving, surrounded by those whom I love the most.
Even as the real estate market moans, groans, and weezes along, I am thankful to be a part of a profession that is so central to so many lives. How many professions provide an opportunity to so positively impact so many people over the course of a career? We Realtors really do have an opportunity to forge a unique and honored place in the lives of our clients. I'm thankful for that.
On the way home last night, as I turned off Bay Street, and began the modest ascent up the Woods Memorial Bridge and over the Intracoastal Waterway, I couldn't help but be thankful to live here in Beaufort, SC.
I'm thankful this morning for the opportunity to help out at the Parish Church of St. Helena, our church home, as we host our annual community meal.
I'm thankful for friends, both in Beaufort and beyond.
I'm thankful for all the users of Active Rain, who take time out of their day to provide helpful feedback to blog posts, and I'm thankful for the information and insight provided by other bloggers on this site.
Please have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Enjoy your family, friends and all the blessings in your life. If you are on the road, please travel safe, and we'll see you soon.
