I did not get a chance to write on Thanksgiving. I wanted to write about what I was thankful for.
I am thankful for…
- my father cooking me my lunch every work day.
- my mother washing my clothes even when I ask her not to
- caring, loving and attentive parents
- my good health
- L’s love
- my godchildren’s respect
- my relatives
- a large extended family that allows for a sense of belonging
- friends who accept me as their friend
- my car not breaking down on me
- a federal government that is relatively better than most
- my experiences in debate, business undergrad, and general education
- the opportunity to work in the mortgage industry as a loan officer
- the simple comforts of home
- the joy of reading
- the meditative and transforming effects of music
- the gift of love
- the mistakes that have made me into a wiser person
- the limited time I have on this earth
