Thanksgiving Thoughts

Happy Thanksgiving to You!!
I’ve been talking to myself a little this week and we decided to commit to a daily Thanks-living program. I’m sure this idea has been featured on Oprah or Dr. Phil so I can’t take credit for it. 

I bought a little journal with lots of pages and I plan to enter one grateful thought a day. Often times, I fail to reflect and be thankful for the goodness I've received. I'm hoping that if I see them on paper, I’ll be reminded to be more grateful and less assuming in my life and thoughts. Here's a few entries I plan to make in my journal. I'm thankful for - -
  • My dogs and their inability to talk. 
  • The commitment my parents made to each other 56 years ago. 
  • Having the title to my vehicle.
  • I drive 20 minutes to work so I can wind up for the day. 
  • I drive 20 minutes home from work so I can wind down. 
  • Having friends that know me and still like me. 
  • Our wood splitter, I love fires. 
  • Online banking and ATM machines. 
  • Mr. L’Oreal and Sister Clinique, for without their expertise in chemistry, my mascara would run and my roots would show.
  • That God knows what I need and gives it to me when it’s time.
Now that you've seen some of my gratefuls, what’s yours? Hope you all have a wonderful day!
