I AM
THANKFUL:
FOR THE
WIFE
WHO SAYS
IT'S HOT DOGS TONIGHT,
BECAUSE
SHE IS HOME WITH ME,
AND NOT
OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE..
FOR THE HUSBAND
WHO IS ON
THE SOFA
BEING A
COUCH POTATO,
BECAUSE
HE IS HOME WITH ME
AND NOT
OUT AT THE BARS.
FOR THE
TEENAGER
WHO IS
COMPLAINING ABOUT DOING DISHES
BECAUSE
IT MEANS SHE IS AT HOME, NOT ON THE STREETS.
FOR THE
TAXES I PAY
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I AM EMPLOYED.
FOR THE
MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A PARTY
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS.
FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT.
FOR MY
SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE
FOR A
LAWN THAT NEEDS MOWING,
WINDOWS
THAT NEED CLEANING,
AND
GUTTERS THAT NEED FIXING
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE A HOME.
FOR ALL
THE COMPLAINING
I HEAR
ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT
BECAUSE
IT MEANS WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
FOR THE
PARKING SPOT
I FIND AT
THE FAR END OF THE PARKING LOT
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING
AND I HAVE
BEEN BLESSED WITH TRANSPORTATION.
FOR MY HUGE HEATING
BILL
BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM
WARM.
FOR THE
LADY BEHIND ME IN SHUL WHO SINGS OFF KEY
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I CAN HEAR.
FOR THE
PILE OF LAUNDRY AND IRONING
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR.
FOR WEARINESS AND
ACHING MUSCLES AT THE END OF THE DAY
BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE
BEEN CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD.
FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF IN
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
BECAUSE
IT MEANS I AM ALIVE.
AND
FINALLY, FOR TOO MUCH E-MAIL
BECAUSE IT
MEANS I HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE THINKING OF ME.
Live
well, Laugh often, & Love with all of your heart
