My heart gives thanks for...

Thankfulness is not just "giving thanks", it is living life acting out of appreciation for what we have.

There are many quotes about thankfulness, gratitude or appreciation...but what does it look, feel, taste, smell, and sound like to me. That is what this journey is about.

I am thankful for opportunity. That I have very few limitations. When push comes to shove...I can do pretty much ANYTHING I set my mind to do. I am thankful for freedom to pursue my dreams, catch & live those dreams, then dream new ones.

I am thankful for each of my little loves, for all of the hugs and kisses that breathe fresh life into my soul every morning.

For my husband...as much as he annoys me, he accepts my imperfection as well. We still have alot to learn about and with each other and I am thankful for the companionship.

My family~as I get older, the more I appreciate every one of them and how much a part of me they are. Of all the things my parents did, and there is more than I could ever acknowledge, one of the best was that they gave me 8 BEST FRIENDS! I am realyl proud that we are getting closer as we grow older instead of drifting apart and I pray each day that this continues. I feel for all the future spouses...hahaha!

And that this is a drop in the bucket of my life and all the goodness that it holds!
