    Thursday's Thoughts: Thanksgiving

    Thursday's Thoughts: a taste of what I'm thinking

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I am blessed beyond measure. I have more to be thankful for than I could ever list, but here's a random sampling of a few things things I can express in a word or short phrase.  Whether big or little, serious or lighthearted, profound or playful, we give thanks to God for all things; for without Him we are nothing.

    family
    a safe place to live
    the smell of baking bread
    hot water for long showers
    slippers
    warm cozy blankets
    steaming hot mugs of tea
    strong coffee
    aprons
    fruit
    vegetables
    refrigerators
    ovens
    electricity
    good books
    computers
    blogging
    my camera
    chances to learn and grow
    cars
    sunshine
    color
    music
    the sound of the breeze rustling leaves
    seasons
    change
    a job
    soap
    bubbles
    popcorn
    freedom
    choices
    adventure
    health
    curiosity
    microwaves
    cell phones
    lotion
    lip gloss
    practice
    patience
    imperfection
    education
    detail
    moon and stars
    colors of the sky
    opportunity

    Food for Thought: "I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder." -Gilbert K. Chesterton
