I Am Thankful For
Anonymous (submitted via email)
I am thankful for ...
The partner who hogs the covers every night, because he/she is not out with
someone else.
The teenager who is not doing dishes but is watching TV, because that means
he/she is at home and not on the streets.
For the taxes that I pay, because it means that I am employed.
For the mess to clean after a party, because it means that I have been
surrounded by friends.
For the clothes that fit a little too snug, because it means I have enough to
eat.
For my shadow that watches me work, because it means I am in the sunshine.
For a lawn that needs mowing, windows cleaning and gutters fixing, because it
means I have a home.
For all the complaining I hear about the government, because it mean that we
have freedom of speech.
For the parking spot I find at the far end of the car park, because it means I
have been blessed with transportation.
For my huge heating bill, because it means I am warm.
For the lady behind me in church that sings off key, because it means that I can
hear.
For the pile of laundry and ironing, because it means I have clothes to wear.
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day, because it means I have
been capable of working hard.
For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours, because it means that I
am alive.
and finally ...
For too much e-mail, because it means I have friends who are thinking of me.
