Thankfulness: A Love Story (Part 4)

Here are more  - and some surprising - things to be thankful for.

Second Chances - If you’ve ever forgiven or been forgiven, you know there’s nothing more encouraging, freeing and beautiful than second chances. It’s never too late to reconcile or redeem. 

Love - For letting you feel what it means to truly be alive.

Laughter - For its wonderful sound, and for helping you forget your worries, if even for a moment.

Life - For giving you the chance to experience all that you’re experiencing.

Travel - Be grateful for your freedom to explore, experience and learn from others on this diverse and fascinating planet. 

FoodIf you have food on your table, be thankful for it. Not everyone is as fortunate as you are. 

Tears – For helping you express your deepest emotions.

Fears – So you know your opportunities for growth. 

Heartbreaks - For helping you mature and become a better person.

Mistakes - Be thankful for the hard times, the mistakes, and the pain. They’ve made you stronger, smarter, and can reassure you that you’ll survive the next one too. 

Kind strangers – For brightening up your day when you least expect it.

You - For being who you are and touching the world with your presence.  Thank you!

And if none that that resonates with you, here's one final thought...

"If you haven’t all the things you want, 
be grateful for the things you don’t have 
that you wouldn’t want." - Unknown
