Are you most thankful that you have the love and support of your family and friends who stayed by your side thru good and bad times. Perhaps you should always be thankful also for the little things other poeple have taken for granted, like waking up in the morning, having a shelter, eating 3 meals a day etc. No matter howmany or how big problems comes our way, it's good to keep your chin up because there's always something to be THANKFUL of.

There's a lot of things to be thankful for in this life, at least in my life. I'm raised that way to be thankful for everything good that happened to me, and all the little things that make me happy. But I guess that most of all I'm thankful that I have such great friends that surround me. They are really a great aspect of my life and without them life would be much harder for me. Great persons with even greater personalities that are here for me 0-24 and I can count on them to never turn back on me and they can count the same for me. So they are my shining diamonds and I'm thankful that I met such great people that are now a big part of my life.

Wow. Menzis good for you that you are seeing all this and being thankful for your friends. It's really true that one of the great factors which contribute to what kind of person you are is the people that sorrounds you. Hope that others would appreciate what they have too.

Of course they are, I spend so much time with them and they definitely help me to shape myself as a person I am today, so I love them really much, they are irreplaceable. Everyone should appreciate their friends, if they are good friends of course (although if they aren't then they really aren't your friends) because friends will be there at any moment for you in life and they are your guardian angels..

People really are so blinded by the problems they have, they counting on more to this problems. They don't even appreciate the very simple and the very most important things in order to live. It doesn't sounds good when you hear a lot complaining to others and to God sometimes. Why can't people be satisfied with little things?.

yes I am very thankful for what I have in life, I am thankful I can live in freedom, make my own choices, grew up in a wonderful stable happy family and have lived up to what my parents would have wanted. I only wish everyone in the world could have the every day things we sometimes take for granted and peace to the world.

I am grateful not only for the good but bad things in life. For each event teaches me a lesson and makes me stronger. I am happy for strenght, common sense, and having great supportive people in my life. I am grateful to have a optimistic outlook on life. When all else fails, I am happy if I was able to teach someone.

Perfectly right, we should also be thankful for the bad experiences we have. Our mistakes and failures in the past teaches us lessons and makes us a much better person. Being optimistic is such a good attitude, it lifts our spirits in times of hardhips.

I'm thankful every day I wake up, every time I take a drink of fresh water, when I'm able to eat fresh fruit of anything sweet-actually thankful to be able to eat at all. I'm thankful for the people in my life like family and friends. I'm thankful to breathe fresh air, to be able to see clearly, hear, smell, taste, and feel. To have emotion and to dream. Life is what I'm thankful for. I'm now thankful for your question. Good Day and Blessings to you and all!

What am I thankful for ? This is important for me.
I am mostly thankful for my Lord, Jesus. He gives me a strength when I am down. He gives me everything what I need. He always forgives me the bad I was and am. I am also thankful my parents, my sister and other people who always support me. I am thankful for my job. I save half the amount of my salary and I was happy with it. Thank You My Lord, I Love You

I so like and agree with your statement. We should we always be thankful to them. Our parents provide us what we need in life. They educate us. They gave us food. They gave us shelter. Most of all, they gave us love. They are always there for us, good or bad.

Yup your really right.Thumbs up to your ideas.We must be thankful at first in the morning that we have another life.A breath to take in.We must be thankful for blessings that we have received every second instead because some people who are praying for the longer life almost they live already in the hospital hoping for additional here on earth. Doing good works like being good to other people,generous.We must be contented instead of what be have and be thankful.I know God has plan for the best of what we could be.
