Thread: What are you grateful for???

    What are you grateful for???

    Not to be too dramatic but my son's school bus was *almost* involved in a horrific accident this morning. It made me realise that I should stop complaining and be grateful for what I have:

    - 3 beautiful and healthy children
    - 2 cats who love me
    - all 4 parents
    - all my precious friends on PT

    (((HUGS))) to everyone.

    What are YOU grateful for???

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    I'm grateful for a lot of things but there is one thing in particular I've been very thankful for lately:

    *The good times I got to spend with my mom before she died.

    I lost her a month ago yesterday and I miss her very much.

    I'm glad your son and the rest on his school bus are okay!!! {{HUGS}}

    I'm grateful for everything I have... good and bad.
    I've come to realize, the bad in life just helps you learn and plan for the future.

    Especially grateful for..
    My two dogs, my family, the house I live in, the bed I sleep in, the great friends in real life and those sincere friends on PT.... much more, but those are at the top.

    Julie, first I'm glad your son is OK and all the others on the bus as well.

    I am grateful for everything that God has given me.

    My husband, my mom who is my best friend and my sounding board, my health and the health of my husband and mom, my house, that I have a good job that affords us to put food on the table each night. I am greatful for the things I have seen in my life (my grandfather died of a heart attack in front of me, and my grandmother battled cancer for 4 years and I was there when she passed) in seeing those 2 events I am so greatful for each day that I have.

    Tigger, Smokey, Tucker, Mystic, and Abner as well as the many other kitties that I have been blessed to care for as each one has taught me something different.

    Everything good and bad that has come my way. The decision I have made in my life (again good or bad) they have all taught me lessions in how to love, listen, care, understand, appreciate, sympathise, learn......


    Smokey, Mystic, Abner

    Everything my parents do for me- little and big.
    My mom exposing me to horses at an extremely young age and letting me start to ride at age 6.
    The clothes on my back
    The shoes on my feet
    The food in my stomach
    The roof over my head
    The car in the garage
    Getting to volunteer at horse camp
    My pets


    The list goes on.

    I am grateful for that split second right before I start to whine about anything...

    Right then I remember that I am pretty lucky and should be grateful.

    Hmm...so many things, really. My mom, my family and friends that support me so much, my fat belly( ), the job I have, the house I live in, my health, my cats....I am way more grateful for what I have than envious of what I don't...

    Oh Julie, I'm so glad to hear your son and his school-mates are all okay!!! How scary!

    I'm grateful for all that God has given me. First of all, I am grateful for my faith in God. Without my faith, I would have nothing. I am grateful for my mom and dad, for my brother, for my sweet birds, for my relatives and friends, for our house and cars, for the health of myself, and all those that I love. The list is endless. God has given us all so much to be thankful for.

    Phew! I'm glad everyone's alright!

    I'm grateful for so many things. I've just recently come to realize how lucky I really am. I'm grateful I have a (semi-normal) family, some wonderful friends I can always count on, my online friends, my two silly pups, the house we live in, the gorgeous city we live in and so much more! And although my family is in a tight situation financially right now, I'm still grateful that I at least have a home to come home to, clothes to wear, food to eat and clean water to drink!
