Thanking God for all the wonderful things in my life
There are so many reasons that I have to thank God. To look up and smile and say THANKS! Or to be more respectful THANK YOU OH KIND AND GRACIOUS ONE! Ok that was just mocking, but I’m sure someone gets the point.
I have a wonderful family whose crazy, loving, caring, and just all around good people. I’m so thankful that I’m finally able to realize how lucky I am and that my family consists mainly of people I want to be around and spend time with; not run away from. It’s amazing to me that I’m able to say that about them. I spent so many years thinking how unlucky I was…. And wonder why I was chosen for such a family. I spent so much time trying to get as far away from them as I could but now things are different. And the more I think about it the more I realize that maybe it was the distance that I needed in order to be able to really see them for who they were. More than just people put on this earth to terrorize and control my life. Ah the angry thoughts of youth. Not that I’m old or anything….
I also feel so thankful for my wonderful boss and job. Without him, nothing I have now would be possible. Nothing at all… he’s kind, generous, caring and just a wonderful human being who believed in me gave me a chance, and goes out of his way to help me whenever I need it. I’ve never met someone who could be so caring to a total stranger. And because of him, I have the comfort of knowing that I have enough money to pay ALL of my bills, even if that means I have very little money left, I don’t care. I honestly don’t. I never really felt sad for not having money to buy clothes, books, or random things. I always hated not being able to afford my bills. It was the worst for me. And now I have that comfort and stability to say that I can pay them. Thank you God and thank you Dr. Dennis.
I thank God for the wonderful man that was crazy enough to love me. Even though I put him through hell and a half and sometimes still do. He’s been the best thing that’s ever happened to me. Most definitely, and I’m so thankful that I’ve been given the chance to have a love so fulfilling, complete, and wonderful that it sometimes makes me speechless. The pain that I feel when I hurt his feelings or he hurts mine is so intense that my entire body aches. I’ve never really experienced that kind of love before. And even when I do hurt, he tries his best to talk to me and make things better. I see the hurt he feels too and I know that we love each other too damn much.
And lastly I have to thank God for my wonderful car. It’s too beautiful to dedicate a paragraph to so all I’m going to say is that it is the coolest thing I’ve ever owned. Mmmmmm how I love that car… and even though I’m poor because I make my payments on it, I can never feel regret for buying that damn car. Not once has the thought entered my mind.
Life is good…. God has blessed me and all I can do is enjoy it, be thankful, and pray for the strength to deal with all the other stresses in life that make all the good things taste so wonderful.
