Anyone who's a victim....er...member of Facebook has likely seen the " Thanksgiving challenge" Each day, you challenge yourself to think about something that you are thankful for and, every day leading up to Thanksgiving day, you post that item to your status update. It's a really neat concept and really does force one to think about those things that are often taken for granted in the break neck pace of life.
I think it's a great thing to press pause on life occasionally and collect our blessings, dust them off and be really, truly grateful for them.
So, instead of dragging on a long list of people ( and odd inside jokes) for which I am thankful for, I just want you to know that if you are reading this, I am thankful for you. Each person in my life adds something unique and special to me- those who know just the right thing to say to me. Those who try to traverse the up and down waves of my moods. Those who's warm smile can't be anything but filled with genuine love and hope. Those who's sense of humor so perfectly fits mine. Those who's ears never get tired of hearing about my days. Those who mirrored the love of God .Those who's friendship, though only "virtual" can transcend the boundary of a computer screen encircling what we know to be true friendship. Those who've journeyed with me through mall hair, shoulder pads and stirrup pants ( and back again!). Those who said nothing at all. Thank you!
