Thankful for...

[moondagger]

I am thankful for...
by Nancie J. Carmody
...the mess to clean up after a partybecause it means I have been surrounded by friends....the taxes I paybecause it means that I'm employed....the clothes that fit a little too snugbecause it means I have enough to eat....my shadow who watches me workbecause it means I am out in the sunshine....the spot I find at the far end of the parking lotbecause it means I am capable of walking....all the complaining I hear about our governmentbecause it means we have freedom of speech....that lady behind me in church who sings off keybecause it means that I can hear....lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixingbecause it means I have a home....my huge heating billbecause it means that I am warm....weariness and aching muscles at the end of the daybecause it means that I have been productive....the alarm that goes off in the early morning hoursbecause it means that I am alive. There are three kinds of days:

1. Good days,
2. Great days, and
3. Outstanding days.

I hope yours is Outstanding!
