This page is dedicated to all those that in one way or another have contributed to making my life a special one. I am thankful that my family will once more spend such a meaningful day together and I am thankful for Mike who has brighten our lives with his wonderful smile.
There are so many things for us all to be thankful for. Even when things aren't going exactly as you planned or expected there is still much around you to be thankful for. The mere fact that you are here today is something to be thankful for. For this day, lets forget about the things we don't have and take the time to rejoice those we do.

BE THANKFUL |

Be thankful that you don't already have everything
you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

THE PILGRIMS CAME
The Pilgrims came across the sea, And never thought of you and me; And yet it's very strange the way We think of them Thanksgiving day. We tell their story, old and true Of how they sailed across the blue, And found a new land to be free And built their homes quite near the sea. Every child knows well the tale Of how they bravely turned the sail And journeyed many a day and night, To worship God as they thought right. ~~Author Unknown.~~ |
