Being Thankful

My word - does time fly by when things absorb and occupy you, keeping you away from the things that you should hold dear to you. "Keep The Main Thing, The Main Thing!"

Well, as suspected, the start of this list of things to be thankful for has sparked much soul searching and debate in what I value in life and what I should rather value and appreciate. I am not convinced priorities are in the correct order, but this list is going a long way to "realign" my mind to focus on the correct things as opposed to everything else that comes across my path.

11. For the trust given me by my friends and colleagues.
12. Early morning trips that allow me to see the sun rise across the landscape.
13. Watching the sunset - seeing each star being called out to shine across the sky!
14. The support of friends who are always there to help when I need it.
15. Raymond - More than just a true friend.
16. For the new challenges my Lord has faced before me.
17. For His unending grace.
18. For our new house - it may not be perfect, but it will be a home that will be filled with much love and laughter. It will exude warmth and love.
19. The excitement of seeing old friends.
20. For the loyalty and love that my dogs show to me - what a wonderful way to get home each day!
