Being Thankful

Some people think a family is the collection of people you're tied to by DNA. "Blood is thicker than water. Ties of blood are the strongest of them all!" Being a family means that these are the people that make you feel good about yourself, who accept you as you are, who don't expect you to be perfect, who listen when you talk and let you change your mind if you need to. The people whose presence makes your life deeper and richer and more fulfilling.

For them, I am thankful.


Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie



For them, I am thankful.
