It would take all night. and I could still never list all I am thankful for. First and foremost I am thankful to have survived for one more Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for a wife who refused to allow me to give up to death's siren song, and insisted we get another motorcycle. For the wonder of five senses enabling me to enjoy this beautiful world in so many ways. I'm thankful for those family members still surviving with me, and for those who have gone before but enriched my life by sharing it before their passing. I'm thankful for all my friends, those I know both online and those known offline, for everyone who has ever enriched my life. I am thankful to live in such a period of exciting changes, and for being allowed to live to see Barack Obama elected President of the USA! For being born in such a privileged country as this! And, I am thankful to have born with the ability to feel thankfulness, the ability to experience and appreciate other people, and for a mind capable of perceiving this awesome universe and that I have a place in it.
...oh, and like Kitty, I am very thankful for painkillers without which, surely, I would have died from pain after the surgery that saved my life. Too, I am thankful for an inability to remember what that pain actually felt like! |
