Giving Thanks ...


Recommended Posts

What are you going to give, "thanks" for?

 

Will it be for materialistic reasons?

 

Will it be for spiritual reasons?

 

Combination of both? (my take)

 

Thoughts?

Well, I'm thankful for lots of things but right now I'm thankful every minute that my computer is freezing up, blowing up, falling apart or performing some sort of illegal action that will shut it down.

 

I am thankful that it remembers my passwords. I'm thankful that it automatically upgrades stuff for me. I am thankful that the AIDS virus hasn't infected my hard drive. I am really thankful that Google helps me find my reading glasses when I lose them. I am thankful to my homepage for letting me know how the government has screwed me each day.

 

I can remember when I got my first computer I had to reboot so many times I just automatically rebooted every ten minutes regardless. I can think of a few people I'd love to reboot.

I give thanks on a daily basis for my blessings.

 

My savior

My health

My freedom

All my family and friends (including the friends on LS)

My caring personality

Knowing the difference between right and wrong in all aspects

The opportunities that I have had to better myself

Music

Animals

Having a roof over my head

Having the opportunity to have a successful future

Having freewill

Not being negative and bitter toward others

That I found LS.:D

 

Ok, I am done.

I give thanks for my faith and the spirit.

 

I give thanks for the life I shared with my father and the lessons that he taught me. I give thanks that he no longer suffers and give thanks that I feel him with me almost every moment of the day.

 

I give thanks that there are people who love me.

 

I give thanks for the life that was gifted to me, and for each experience, painful or joyful, that enriches my soul.

I'm thankful for the news that I received a few weeks ago. Not only did it make me much more self-confident/cocky, but it also puts me in a good position now

 

I'm thankful that the major problems in my life are not really anything big compared to what others have to face

 

I'm thankful that for my relentless curiosity

 

I'm thankful for where I live. I complain about this location...from the weather to the people. But it's still an awesome place to live and there's a lot to do...and the beach is only a few miles away!

 

I'm thankful for the ladies that cut my hair. They always give me great haircuts like the one I just got. I often notice how people subtly treat me better when my hair is real short and gelled...its weird.

 

I'm thankful for Carl's Jr for introducing their new malt shakes!!! It's like crack!

 

And right now as I'm listening to this song, I'm thankful to Wojciech Kilar for making the soundtrack to Bram Stoker's Dracula...

I'm thankful for my family, especially for the kids, who are a wellspring of love.

 

I'm thankful for my job, because I'm doing something I love and believe in, AND they're giving me money to do it!

 

I'm thankful for my husband, who decides each and every day to keep on keepin' on with me.

 

I'm thankful for my close circle of friends who make my days brighter and who take way the sting of pain when I'm hurting.

 

I'm thankful that cold weather has FINALLY hit Texas and it feels like fall. What a rush! The colors, the coolness ...

 

I'm thankful for being who I am, where I am ... God's given me a wonderful life.

i subscribe to the theory you reap what you sow. so giving thanks is really enlightened self-interest. you give genuine thanks and this tells the obliging universe you want experiences you can be thankful for. hey presto.

 

the flip side is that moaners and scowlers also reap what they sow and get experiences to moan and scowl about. when will they learn, eh?

 

good old universe.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

 

I'm thankful for the fact that despite my whining I have it pretty damn good. I'm also thankful I have four days to sleep in.

Because you're not on the receiving end.

I'm also thankful I have four days to sleep in.
Here's hoping your dreams are sweetly wicked.

I heard that the average thanksgiving meal per person is around 3000 calories.:eek:

 

I am thankful for my health and for the opportunities that I had been given and will continue to get to improve myself inside and out on a daily basis.
