Thanks For Thanksgiving

Once a year comes a day when we are specifically reminded to give thanks (at least in the United States). Hopefully most of you out there are thankful more than once a year, but if that’s all you can manage then it’s better than nothing. I want to take a minute to list in no particular order some things I personally am thankful for.

• My beautiful wife
• The people who surround me and support me (You know who you are)
• Employment that pays the bills while letting me do something I love
• Al Gore – for inventing the internet (Actually, that’s a joke)
• Modern medicine
• Freedom – It wouldn’t be possible without the sacrifice that many have made
• Role models – For taking the high road when it wasn’t easy
• Bicycles
• Choice – The absence of choice is tyranny
• Sight (it makes it all possible)
• Genuine conversation with another person
• Positive people – We wouldn’t have Thanksgiving without them
• Pumpkin pie with whipped cream

This list could go on and on and for that I’m thankful.

Thanks.
