Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough. – Oprah Winfrey

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns; I am thankful that thorns have roses. – Unknown

I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of my nose. – Woody Allen

I have many external things I could list here that I’m very thankful for; family, friends, “stuff” and etc. But, what I’m most thankful for is my own life. Not just the breathing, walking, being alive part but the entire journey that I’ve been gifted.

Every decision, every turn in the road, every “mistake”, every chance meeting, every relationship, every trial and tribulation, every experience has lead me to this very moment. No regrets. No worries. Just being.

l have no desire for another person’s life nor do I want to change any of mine. It’s all good.

The more I enjoy exactly who and where I am at this very moment, the more I’m assured that will continue. Simply stated I know, but it took some years to get here. Though, looking back, it didn’t have to.

The most powerful gift you can give yourself is the gift of being thankful for your life.

Michael
