Thankful Thursday

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity.... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. Melodie Beattie

Today, I am most grateful for:

1. Friends who are always there when you need them and want nothing but the best for you.

2. My loved ones, for so many reasons. They can be taken from us all too quickly,

3. The men and women who risk their lives daily in order to save and protect us.

4. Freedom, and those who serve to protect it.

5. Our country who proved we can set aside our differences and truly be "one nation, indivisible".
