"Don't complain that roses have thorns, be thankful thorns have roses!". That's always been one of my favorite quotes. It's from my middle school seminary teacher. Some recent things that have happened have got me thinking. What am I thankful for? I want to start a gratitude chain. If you have anything to be grateful for (we all do), I want you to put a comment on this post, and then start it on your blog. It's time we stop crying about the things that we DON'T have and start focusing on the things we DO!!! I'll start.... what am I thankful for? (In no particular order)
1-a husband that wants to kill me, but wont.
2-kids that make me laugh
3-Coca-cola
4-friends that love me unconditionally
5-Randy's job
6-family that loves me even more than my friends
7-the right to say whatever the hell I want to
8-parents that chose to adopt me, and even fight to adopt me
9-in -laws that raised a cool son for me to marry
10-the guidance that the Gospel gives me everyday
That's just the 1st 10 I thought of, I could go on but I wont. Let me see what you're thankful for. I am interested in what EVERYONE has to say. Even if you don't have a blog, leave a comment. Let's see what this does!!!
