Being Grateful

My friend, Marcus, tagged me for this one. So here are the three things I’m grateful for.

1. My family. My parents have given me the best example of generosity of love by their own example. I am so blessed to have been born to them. My children keep me honest, keep me going and keep me laughing. My granddaughter and her mommy have given me a brand new reason to never give up. My family is my heart.

2. My needs are met. I’m grateful that I’m not hungry or cold or homeless. I have a place to live and food in the kitchen. I know where I’ll lay my head tonight and where I’ll awake in the morning. I even have some of my “wants,” too. I have a computer with a high speed connection. I have a TV with cable. I have a car to get me where I need or want to go. I’m so grateful that I have been given so much.

3. My Faith. No matter what happens in my life or how I mess up, I always have the love of my Father. I can’t imagine what would have happened to me in this life if I hadn’t had my Faith to get me through. God has never turned His back on me and I will be forever grateful for His neverending love.

And now I tag: Ms. Kat, Lisa and Skeet.
