The good things:
a) basically I am very healthy. Okay that isn't a stretch. I don't have cancer, heart disease, am not paralysed, can breathe on my own and exercise every day.
b) There is sunshine today - sometimes the small things are all I can find to be grateful for so that is one today.
c) Today I can make a quilt and eventually it will make someone happy or comfort them. A skill I have to share.
d) I have a supportive group of friends and family as well as an online support group who really understand. I can share with all of you and spare my family my constant whining! that is very special.
e) Although my legs, hands, hips, knees occasionally fail me I can still read books and listen to music. Wow! That is special.
f) We live in a continent where we can speak our mind and if someone doesn't agree with us that is okay - we can block them out and no harm will basically come to us - no jail, no stonings. Even Ironman (much as we dislike what he has to say) is free to ramble on - we can block him out and warn others to take what he says with a grain of salt. I would hate to see us completely get rid of the spammers - warn them off yes but protect their freedom of speech - that is what this continent is about (much as I hate admitting it sometimes. I detest people who prey on others).
Thanks Donna for reminding us. That gratitude diary is sometimes necessary.

Thought I'd start this thread so that we can all focus on the many GOOD
things in our life. The positives of our lives! We all have them and
sometimes get caught up in the ugly sad parts of life and forget to give
thanks for all the good we have in our lives!
So, share a few blessings, good things, positive things in your life!
I'll start:
I am soooooo thankful for
1) The awesome people that make up ASA and their incredile support and
love!
2) I am extremely thankful for and blessed by incredibly caring and
compassionate doctors who always are willing to go the extra mile!
3) I am so thankful for my family. For my brothers who always know
how to make me laugh. For my nieces and nephews who bless me just by
being themselves and for their willingness to spend time with their
aunts and uncles.
4) I am beyond blessed by an incredible group of friends who would do
pretty much anything for you and who love me despite my many flaws!
5) I am thankful for a LOVING God who forgives me for so much each and
every day!!!
6) I am thankful to look out my window and see the sun shining
brightly which really boosts my spirits!

1.) ANGELS EXIST, but some times, since they don't all have wings, we
call them FRIENDS......
2.) May God's richest blessings be
upon you both today and
throughout the year.
May His blessings flow through
you to touch the lives of
everyone you meet.
