It’s so easy to focus on the bad stuff, but every day I try to think of one thing I’m grateful for. Things could always be worse, and are for so many people. This helps me keep perspective.

What are you thankful for today?

 

I’m so thankful I have people I trust completely. I think that’s pretty rare and I feel blessed ❤️

 

I'm above ground

 

Whilst I am not massively rich, I do live in a very nice country. Clean streets, low crime, great views.

 

Have a lot of things to be thankful for:

1. Having friends, family members and ex coworkers that keep in touch. It can be a lonely road when you don’t have any of that.

2. This site. It has allowed to experience things never felt and do things never done. Additionally go to meet someone I never met before.

2. Being employed. While I don’t like my job it does suck even worse being unemployed.

3. Music and specifically one band. They have got me through tough times and I’m still listening to them 19 years later.



4. Dog. She has allowed me to have someone when times are lonely.

These are just a few from over the past few years.

 

Breathing

 

Well, Shooters back doesn't hurt too badly today.
And his vertigo is pretty much non existent.

He does have that going for him........

 

With my lungs, that's makes me happy.

 

It's very simple. I wake up in the morning and whisper, "Thank you." It's directed to anyone or anything that happens to listen that allowed me to live another day.
Anything and everything that happens after that, good, bad or indifferent is an experience I wouldn't have if I wasn't given the gift I got that morning.

 

I'm the luckiest guy in the world! I have the love of a beautiful woman who is my confidant and lover!!❤️ Did I mention sexy? OMG she is SEXY!!!

 

Thankfully for my new puppy

 

I’m thankful I have a job. I don’t love it but it’s a good job and I’m good at it.

 

i am thankful for all the nice people in the world.

 

I'm thankful that I can figure complicated audio things out when Prof. Google just isn't all that helpful.

 

My birthday was yesterday and I’m grateful that I made it another year. I’m not old mind you but every year I hear about more people my age dying.

 

Small things make my day. Yesterday I cut and installed a small shelf on my boat. Unexpectedly, it fit the FIRST TIME and went in with no issues. I thought it would be a four hour job of sanding a fitting to make it work!

 

I am thankful for having a choice, to see two, or more, sides of a story, situation, experience, and decide for myself which, which part of, or mix of both, is more real, fact, or what to believe, and do so without concern of offending. If someone is offended, it just reinforces that their view is wrong, if it were right why would they be offended by what someone else thought ?

 

For waking up this morning.

 

An awful lot...
