I am thankful for:
...the mess to clean after a party
because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
...the taxes I pay because it means I'm
employed.
...The clothes that fit too snug because
it means I have enough to eat.
...my shadow who watches me work because
it means I am out in the sunshine.
...the spot I find at the far end of the
parking lot because it means I am capable of walking.
...the piles of laundry and ironing
because it means my loved ones are nearby.
...the lawn that needs mowing, windows
that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing because it means I
have a home.
...my heating bill because it means I am
warm.
...the person behind me in church who
sings off key because it means I can hear.
...weariness and aching muscles at the
end of the day because it means I have been productive.
...the alarm that goes off in the early
hours because it means that I am alive!
