With tomorrow being Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for? I am thankful for my family and that I live in a great Country. I am also thankful that there are people who are willing to lay down their lives to protect it and me. I thank God for these things.

There are bunch of things I have to thank for. First, God of course because He kept guiding me in my everyday activities. My husband, as my bestfriend too. Al the blessings that my husband and I received also for my family. These are just few of the things I have to thank for.

I'm thankful for my family: for my sister who is ever so supportive and loving and who'll kill if I'm pissed of because she really believes in me. for my father who became less paranoid of me being away from home because of work in another province. for my mother who learned how to chat just so she can talk to me everyday and ask me what I had a for lunch. for my boyfriend who makes me feel loved. and for my boyfriend's family who treats me like I'm family :D
Amen.
Thanks for commenting in my discussion!

Even with the worst of economic times hitting us at this time, there is a great deal that we all have to be thankful for. You have spelled out some of them. I personally am thankful for my wife and my family, my friends and for my faith. I am thankful for the fact that there is a God who loves us and cares for us even if there are those who do not think so. I am thankful for having a roof over my head and having the ability, no matter how small it is to help when I can for those who do not have what I am my family have, which mind you, is not much. I do believe that our military gives us a great deal to be thankful for. They have since the inception of our freedom have given us something to be thankful, year after year, decade after decade, generation after generation.
One individual I have not mentioned here but would like to say that we should all be thankful for is: The President of the United States. He is the leader of the free world and he has one tough decision to make after another. This is just not one day and not the next, but every day. He has to do what is necessary to protect our freedom as well as those of our allies. He has to make the decisions that affect not only us as Americans, but those who live elsewhere looking for our help and looking for our guidance. This has been true throughout the history of the office and will always be true in the future as well.
Happy Thanksgiving.

I was very thankful to Him for giving me life. Having my own family and parents that raised and care to me. Having friends.
And to add more thanks also for what I am now as a new person. Before, I was not like this I hate all the things that irritates my eyes. I always angry with no good reasons why. That is me before. So, thanks to God He gave me a husband which is very religious and understanding. He is the one who teach me to be patience in many things .He always explained things in positive way that I understand. I was thankful for being me a new creation of God.

Thanks for your comments. Family and friends are important. You never realize that until you are out alone somewhere.
