…for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours,
because it means I am alive.
…for weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day,
because it means I have been capable of working hard.
…for my shadow that watches me work,
because it means I am out in the sunshine.
…for the taxes that I pay,
because it means that I am employed.
…for the clothes that fit a little too snug,
because it means I have enough to eat.
…for the teen-ager who is complaining about doing dishes
because he is at home and not on the streets.
…for the mess to clean up after a party,
because it means that I have been surrounded by friends.
…for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and need fixing, because it means I have a home.
…for the lady behind me in church that sings off key,
because it means that I can hear.
…for all the complaining I hear about the government,
because it means that I have freedom of speech.
…for the parking spot at the far end of the parking lot,
because it means I am capable of walking
and that I have been blessed with transportation.
…for my huge heating bill, because it means I am warm.
And.....I am SO thankful for my online FRiends!
