What I am Grateful For
Posted on November 26, 2008
When I got back from my 5-mile run this morning I was feeling very grateful. Grateful for a lot of things. It’s sad that it takes a holiday to remind me of what I am grateful for, but oh well. Better to remember this week than never!
I’m grateful for my awesome wife. She dominates at everything. She does so much for our little family and keeps me out of trouble. Yeah, she rolls her eyes at me all the time, but I always deserve it.
I’m grateful for my parents, who have always been supportive of me and my brothers. My parents have taught me so much and continue to do so by being great examples of loving everyone.
I’m grateful for my 3 brothers. I look up to all of them (literally, I’m the shortest). They all have great talents and are sharing them with the world.
I’m grateful for my sisters-in-law. Thanks for teaching me that sisters aren’t all that bad! I’m grateful for my 2 brothers-in-law. They are examples of great dads.
I’m grateful for my mom and dad in-law. I’m glad they let me marry their daughter.
I’m grateful for my friends. They are always great friends even though sometimes I am not.
I’m grateful for my health. I’m glad I can run, walk, bike, and swim if I choose. I’m grateful that I can think, reason, and learn.
I’m grateful for my faith and the hope it brings to me and my family.
I’m grateful to be able to share this with everyone through technology.
This Thanksgiving season, I am grateful for all of this and more. What are you grateful for?
Go easy on the pie and remember why you take care of your health. Everyone mentioned above is why I want to be around chronic disease free for a long time.
Enjoy your holiday!
