I Am Thankful

I may have Agoraphobia, but I am still thankful for things.
My Mom used to tell me no matter how bad off I am,
someone, somewhere is worse off than me.

1. I'm thankful that I have my sight, so that I can see
all the beauty around me.

2. I am thankful that I can hear a child`s laughter,
and birds singing.

3. I am thankful that I have arms to be able to
embrace my children, family, and friends.

4. I am thankful I have hands to be able to write,
to do household chores and to cook.

5. I am thankful that I have legs and feet that I
can get around easily.

6. I am thankful that I have my children`s love.

7. I am thankful that I have friends on line and
in real life.

8. I am thankful that God has allowed me to still
be here.

9. I am thankful that I have somewhere to live.

10. I am thankful I have food and decent clothing.

11. I am thankful to have the means to keep our
clothing clean.

12. I am thankful that I have grown mentally as I
have aged physically.

13. I am thankful that I can smell the flowers in
spring, the clean newborn baby smell, and my
daughter`s hair after her bath.

14. I am thankful that I`ve experienced hardships
so that I can understand and sympathize with those
going through them.

15. I am thankful that I`ve gotten to experience
love from the opposite sex even if the ending was
very painful.

16. I am thankful that I still hold hope that
someone will love me again.

17. I am thankful for things I`ve experienced that
have made me the kind of person that I would
like as a friend or love.

I am sure there are many more, but these are the
ones that came to mind at this moment... :))

How many things can you think of to be thankful for ?
