So much...

But, I am thankful for everything I have this holiday season, for the home I live in with room enough for children's messes.

I am thankful for my tiny income that still seems to stretch as far as I need, because I remember not long enough ago that I didn't have one. I am thankful for family who loves me and supports me, even if they don't understand me. I am thankful for finally seeing inside my head and loving who I am, not who they want me to be. I am thankful for my children, for the joy they give me and the motivation.

I have so much to be thankful for!

And I am....

Very thankful for getting my spa going again. I fixed it!!! Now, maybe, I will sleep better and have less pain. Not a luxury item, durable medical equipment with a prescription.

Happy camper here. Guess I should keep my fingers crossed until I know it is fully heated... so far, so good.

Ya'All are invited for a soak anytime!

i am thankful for the insistence of honesty.

For being held accountable.

For not being allowed to slide under the radar.

For being expected to be towards others the way i expect people to be with me.

For the opportunity to grow and trust and know it's ok...and for the not-so-gentle reminders when i lose sight of this for a minute.

i don't appear thankful for certain things, especially if they are probably for my own good, but i am thankful for them deep down inside.

:hippie:

[sylvie]

i am thankful for :

- wake up calls.. the ability to let go & heal.
- to have enough respect for myself to want better & seek strength through friends & loved ones..
- for sincerity in my heart, that wants good things for people, even when it brings hurt to myself.
- for the 'me' time i've already spent since 2011 began, the progress, the sheer pleasure of feeling the growth each day..

- 2 beautiful children, who show me unconditional love each day.
- the hope of a well balanced future, of dreams coming true, of true love being found and a lifetime of bliss.. one can always hope & dream..

- getting off work an hour early tonight (with pay) because it's storming out.. it's really generous that our boss allows us to do this when it's really bad outside..

- the dose of reality tonight.. though sometimes hurtful, it makes me a stronger person in the end..

- music - it's my escape, it soothes my soul, and always fits my mood, whether i need a pick me up, or something while feeling sentimental, something to rawk the heck out or if i just want to scoot around cleaning the house dancing like no one is watching and singing into a spatula being the star of the show, it always makes everything feel right again..

I am thankful for the time God gives me with people in my life. Sometimes it is only for a short time, sometimes it is a journey and sometimes it takes a lifetime to appreciate them. But I am thankful for the good roads and speed bumps traveled in each relationship because I always learn something. Mostly I learn that time, patience, understanding, compassion and love will eventually bring me to a place, to appreciate the people who crossed my path in life's journey, and I am very thankful for that.

Had my 3 year anniversary in TX today I am so grateful I came here I have learned so much, grown as a person, found love and goodness in my life and discovered my vocation of teaching.

I am grateful for my good friend Leanne she is always a positive loving presence and a willing partner in crime!

[DamselFly]

i was able to spend a long in a library-my first time in OK! a child asked if i would play puzzles with her *smile*. (i did.) other patrons and i chatted about what we were reading. despite the 2-book rule when you first get your card, the librarian let me check out about 12 books. i inhaled the blessed scent of bookdust. quietness and peace reigned like they should in a well-run library, with underlying soft murmurs of patrons and pages being turned and keys being tapped. ah, the library, haven of peace and booklover's comfort!
namaste,

I am thankful that I am under control....real control of my BPD. I have learned the signs, and when I began to slip into an episode this morning I was able to stop with minimal damage done.

I don't have delusions that I am "ok", but I know that I have the tools to live "ok" with my BPD. For THAT I am really very thankful.

[*Anya*]

...that I have 2 legs and 2 arms. They may not function as well as they used to but I do have them.

I will be late for work but had to post this. I just saw on the news they are closing Walter Reed In DC.

It was full of young military with severe injuries from Iraq & Afganistan. One young guy looked about 24 and had both arms blow off from an IED and bilateral BKA (below knee amputations).

What did he regret the most? That he had to leave the rest of his unit in Afganistan without him.

I am going to try harder to be greatful for what I have and less concerned with petty bullshit.

[foxyshaman]

I am grateful that each day that passes takes me further from what I am leaving behind.

I am grateful that each day that passes takes me closer to where I am going.

I am grateful that I get lost. I have learnt that every path takes me exactly where I need to go, even when I do not know where I am going.

I live today in peace.

I live today in love.

I live today embracing hope.

I'm thankful for finding a love that supports me without making me feel dependent
I'm thankful that I've learned the difference between being dependent on someone [unhealthy for me] and just wanting to do everything with that one person because you love to be around them

I'm thankful for life

[JAGG]

I feel like a broken record sometimes. But I never want to take anything for granted. I'm thankful for my nice quiet peaceful life. No pressure, no stress,no demands,no worries. Reading some posts in here, knowing what others are burdened with, I know I am so fortunate. I was dealt a pretty good hand. Or maybe I just did the best with what I was dealt. But I know I am blessed either way, considering all the factors involved in living this life.

I am thankful for my family. For the love that we have for one another that binds us together. I'm thankful for my children. They are my reason for existance. I am thankful for my girl. She is my lover, my best friend, my true love, my everything. Although my pain in the ass cat Coconut keeps rubbing her face against mine this morning, I am thankful for the love she is showing me :)

[theoddz]

I have so very much to be thankful for, I should really stop grumbling and take time to smell the roses, for there are so many of them in my garden of life:

1. For the love and enduring support of my sometimes very dysfunctional family. :blink:
2. For the love and support of good friends. (f)
3. For my steady and secure job in a profession which I truly love. My employer, the U.S. Government, is still standing by me, as a Disabled Veteran, and allows me a lot of leeway and perks that I know I wouldn't get in the private sector. It has allowed me to keep working and to put back into a system that has given me so much. :winky:
4. For nearly always having more than enough. :thumbsup:
5. For the love and companionship of my little gang of frogs (Myra, Ivan and Tootsie). :heartbeat::frog::frog::frog::awww:
6. For the gorgeous new truck I was able to so easily buy. :)
7. For the love and support of this community. It is, indeed, a second family!! :winky::heartbeat:
8. For the upcoming 3.6% COLA in my disability pension. THAT will surely be welcomed!!! :clap:

~Theo~ :bouquet:

[Oiler41]

I'm thankful for:

1. My beautiful wife and our life together,
2. My health,
3. Having a great group of folks in our lives, both new and old,
4. Our fur kids,
5. A great job I intend to stay with until retirement,
6. My parents, who taught me that living with integrity is of the utmost importance,
7. For the many good fortunes in my life that have positively affected me/us on many levels.
