Grim news continues... be thankful for everything you have

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker

As the stream of terrible economic news continues, I have to admit - there has been one good side to it all for me personally...  I am ever more present to the many things I do have that I am so grateful for.

  1. While 651,000 more people lost their jobs in February, I have several closings on the horizon.
  2. While many are losing their homes, I have a beautiful place I call home, and it is not as risk (YET)
  3. I have a loving partner and 2 sweet, healthy children
  4. I have my health (though I'm battling a sinus infection at the moment - relatively minor!)
  5. I can afford health insurance.
  6. I live and work in a place that approaches "paradise": Sunny San Diego
  7. I have many other things I could list, but I am fortunate to have lots of other enjoyable activities I could spend my Saturday doing!!

What are you grateful for?

Eva I know what you mean. My husband was downsized out of a job after 28yrs in December.

I have to remind myself to be thankful for:

  • having no mortgage
  • my business
  • we have each other
  • two great sons
  • two great dogs LOL
  • so many other things like friends etc.
