Remember To be Thankful For...
...the mess to clean after a party because
it means you have been surrounded by friends.
...the taxes you pay because it means that
you are employed.
...the clothes that fit a little too snug
because it means you have enough to eat.
...the shadow who watches you work because
it means you are out in the sunshine.
...a lawn that needs mowing, windows that
need cleaning and gutters that need fixing
because it means you have a home.
...all the complaining you hear about our
government because it means we have freedom
of speech.
...the spot you find at the far end of the
parking lot because it means you are capable
of walking.
...your huge heating bill because it means
you are warm.
...the lady behind you in church who sings
off key because it means that you can hear.
...the piles of laundry and ironing because
it means you have clothes to wear.
...weariness and aching muscles at the end
of the day because it means you have been
productive.
...the alarm that goes off in the early morning
hours because it means that you are alive.
