When you hear of the misfortune of others, it is a great time to measure your fortunes and increase your gratitude. We were watching the news and heard the story of a woman who was struck by lightning, and survived. In an instant, we remembered, not that we forgot, the joy of living! We took turns saying the things for which we are grateful. Here is our short list in no particular order, except God first always:
- God
- Each other
- Our family and its extensions
- The ability to love and help others
- Wisdom
- The joy of laughter
- Health
- Flowers
- Colors
- Doctors who still care
- Harmony
- Water
- Friends
- Sunsets
- A great novel
- Learning something new
- Music
- Members of the military who sacrifice their lives for ours
- Great Food
- Every second of every day
- Overcoming seemingly impossible obstacles
- Air
- Surprises
- This company, WASIA
- You!
What is on your list?
