I am thankful I can walk;

there are those who have never taken their first step.

I am thankful I can see the beauty all around me;

there are those whose world is always dark.

I am thankful I can hear music playing;

there are those who entire life has been spent in silence.

I am thankful my heart can be broken;

there are those who are so hardened they cannot be touched.

I am thankful I can move about freely and express my beliefs;

there are those who live in constant fear.

I am thankful I have been loved;

there are those for whom no one has ever cared.

I am thankful I can work;

there are those who have to depend on others for even their most basic needs.

I am thankful to wake up in the morning and take a deep breath of fresh air;

there are those who never got that far.

I am thankful for the opportunity to help others;

there are those who have not been so abundantly blessed as I.

Love Amy

Very nice Amy! Thanks for giving!

Have a great DAY! I like to imagine the very first Thanksgiving and the fact that the people came together and SHARED whatever they had; this is my favorite holiday. One because of the history and my own connections to Native Americans but because of FOOD and FAMILY and remembering all that we have to be THANKFUL for.

Love back

I am thankful that I live in this country and have the freedoms to choose to do what I want

to say what I think without fear

to cast a secret ballot

and to come and go as I please unhindered

to have a great family and friends who inspire me

to have my health/(I stayed with a friend today who is incapable of feeding themselves.)

I am thankful for the beauty in the land and people and animals and being here to witness all of it.

I just read this to my dad and he said it was great and also the following:

"anybody that doesnt like me is a MFer!!!

and anyone who does like me he want anything to do with. Dont write him, dont call him, STAY HOME!!!" hehe
