Happy Thanksgiving Day!
As I sit and watch the Macy's day parade, I sip a cup of coffee and reflect on all that I am thankful for in my life and the world.I am thankful for:
- my husband's love and support
- my health, no matter what chronic illness I suffer from, I am still fighting and loving life
- my children and how as they grow older they appreciate my efforts from the past more
- my beautiful grandchildren
- my friends here with me, far away and connected by the Internet
- the American soldiers who give so much that we may be free to celebrate and live safely
- the technology that I am able to stay close to loved ones
- my skill in writing that I may share my talent with others
- my faith in God and the joy in praising His name
- having Bipolar because it has taught me humility and patience and love for my life
- my neighbors for their friendship and support
- blueberries and that I can purchase them year round
- the love and support of my dog, Jack and my parrot, Bailey
- my family near and far that they always know how much I love and cherish them
- the restaurants and staff who keep their doors and kitchens open for those of us who can't handle the stress of cooking a huge elaborate meal for two
- everyone who remembers those in need be they animal or human
- my readers of my books, blogs, and articles
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!!
