Thanksgiving

thanksgiving

what should we be thankful for? That is an individual answer to a big question. One could say I am thankful for my family, but what if you don't have family or have lost a loved one this year? One could say, I am thankful for my job.  Maybe you were downsized this year? I am thankful for my health. What if you were diagnosed with a terminal illness or a chronic illness? I am thankful for my home. Maybe it was foreclosed on, or you are homeless.  I am thankful for the country I live in. However, this country rejects you based on race, ethnicity, income level, education, etc.
I am thankful that I am alive. Sometimes that is all we need, a glimmer of hope or feeling of being alive.  If you have or are experiencing the crisies listed above, remember you are alive and when there is life, there is hope.  Don't give up hope.  Don't give up your hope!!!!
Hope brings forth thankfulness and life and life brings forth hope and thankfulness.
