Gratitude (Served with Stuffing and Gravy)

With Thanksgiving a week away, now is a wonderful time to consciously appreciate all of the goodness in our lives. So I got to thinking, “What are the things I am grateful for on any given day?” Here is my impromptu list:

Fresh fruit
A good night's sleep
A cat curled on my lap
Dogs that play fetch
Anything crunchy
Music
Sunshine
Toothpaste
A hot shower
A big window with a view of the outdoors
Anyone who makes me laugh
A hug
Soft fabrics
Facebook
Friends who I don’t hear from but I just know they’re out there
Comfortable walking shoes
The freedom available in America
Those who fought for us, and those who fight today
Small towns

Stars, and the fact that it is dark enough to see them
Beautiful colors
