Thankful Heart

It's Thanksgiving, and I thought I'd share a few things that I'm thankful for.

I am thankful for a good job, that I like at least 95% of the time. I'm thankful for this beautiful country that I live in and the freedoms I enjoy here. I am thankful for the service men and women past and present who work and have worked so hard to protect the freedoms that I enjoy. I am grateful for friends who are always there for me. You are like family to me. I am thankful for my actual family and the strength they give me, especially my father who is always there when I need him, whether I need to vent about something or I need his help to calm a crisis. For my brother, who is steady and gentle, and proof that there are good young men out there in the world.  For my sisters, both old and new, for the solidarity they show me. For my mother, who helped shape me into who I am today, who gave me wings and let me fly. But most of all, I'm thankful for my knowledge of the gospel, and the comfort it gives. I would be lost without it.
