I am thankful...

origin

As the years pass and the older I get, the more thankful I become. I realize that I am thankful over some of the smallest things. And every Thanksgiving, I reflect on the things I am grateful for (more than usual). And that each year, Thanksgiving seems to have a new meaning to me, and I understand what being truly thankful is.

I am thankful...

for love

the colours red and yellow

music that speaks to the heart

good books

flannel sheets

the sea

for heartfelt words

rain

wool socks

for getting letters in the mail

sincere hugs

those moments when saying nothing says it all

What are you thankful for?
