What Are You Thankful For?

Intuition ...mmm

Lazy Daze · 12-09-2012, 12:46 PM

I am thankful that all my prayers paid off and God led me to find someone who understands me, and loves me for who I am. Who is everything a girl could ask for and so very much more. Who holds me when I need it, and pushes me to get back up when I am down. He is amazing in every little way and I am thankful I have found a love as deep and true as His.

I am thankful for being blessed with 4 beautiful, loving, sweet, silly furkids. Each with their own personalities and quirks.

I am thankful that I have a good steady job with health insurance, a roof over my head, and the ability to have food on our table each night. And that we are priviledged enough to pay it forward from time to time.

I am thankful for my friends and family who have been so supportive over the years and now celebrate with me in my happiness.

I had an amazing experience with nature today. I went for a little hike before work. I wanted to collect some branches for a nature project...So I was walking down the trail carrying one of these boughs...Out of nowhere a little chickadee flew RIGHT in front of my face! He swooped up into a nearby tree and tweeted at me, doing his curious little head bob that chickadees do..I tweeted back to him...(I do these things..) and he FLEW DOWN from the tree and landed on the bough that I was holding! He sat there less than 2 feet from my face and considered me closely. Then flew off...then came another chickadee...same thing...and flew off...
I was heartily and happily amused by this exchange...and I took the turn into a nearby abandoned orchard. There were even MORE chickadees there. As I stood under one of the ancient apple trees, they continued to take turns landing on the bough I was still holding...chirping at me and such. On a whim, I put my hand up to one of the birds on the branch above me. Sure enough, it came down and landed on my HAND! It clung to my fingers and pecked lightly at my knuckle, then my fingernail. Several of them took turns doing this...it was a truly amazing experience. I did think to take a picture...any of you who know me on Facebook, I'm going to post it there

Such a gift....and it's funny because little chickadee was my favorite uncle's nickname for me since I was a wee girl....

JustLovelyJenn · 12-09-2012, 07:34 PM

I am so very thankful today for the being introduced to a new church. Finding a place that I feel welcomed and secure is an amazing blessing in my life right now. I am looking forward to fitting this new group and new experience into my life. Even if the space has to be forced....

I am thankful for community and acceptance.

alexri · 12-10-2012, 08:51 PM

I'm sure it's been said before, and I'm sure it will be said again...

I am still so thankful that we won't be saying the words "President Romney" next month.

Thankful for the chance to spend time with my Grandmother who is turning 89 soon. She is feisty and happy, smiles all the time. Thank God for happy people.

Blade · 12-15-2012, 06:55 PM

My many blessings and today they are plentiful
Good conversation
Fun conversation
Conversation with an old friend and remembering the biker days that we both thankfully out grew. At least out grew the partying and hell raising parts
The equine rescue group I visited with today
The excitement I found in the woods today.

Yup I was all over the map today and found something to be thankful for every step I made

This will be our 11th Christmas together in a home we have made and worked for through the good times and bad...I am so very thankful.

Soft*Silver · 12-16-2012, 12:00 AM

there is so much to be thankful for:

JoSchmooze, our friendship is so rich and sweet. I can count on this man to always be there for me. And he knows I would do anything in the world for him as well.

My helpers at the store, for they kept it open while I was (and still am) suffering from a plethera of physical ailments.

my lil rose cottage. She is becoming more and more a home to me and not just a house. I toy with the idea of finding a bigger home but everytime I look at another home on the market, it only comparatively shows me how much nice my home is to any other home.

my sweet doggies. They are so loyal and committed to me. Velcro doggies. And they know I am having a horrible week so they have been sticking even closer to me.

my honey bunny chrissy. he has kept the house up, bought groceries, taken care of the dogs, and worked his full time midnite shift too, while taking care of me while I am down with these medical problems. Not once did he insinuate that I am a hardship to him. I know I can count on him being there with me in the future, no matter how bad off I get medically.

and lastly, that I had all my christmas shopping done before my medical things happened. I dont have to sweat it!

Kätzchen · 12-29-2012, 08:01 AM

This morning I am thankful that sometimes when I don't rest as well as I would like to, that I can rise feeling awake, ready for the day, and find a sweet smile tucked in my heart for the day.

I also feel a ton of gratitude that my youngest son is my biggest fan.
He loves me and cares about me and has been so wonderful to me lately.

I'm also very grateful for another day to wander about the world and breathe in all the beauty I might see today.

JustLovelyJenn · 12-29-2012, 11:46 PM

I am thankful for my path. For the people and experiences along the way that teach me how to be a better and more fulfilling being. For the lessons I have learned that have taught me to value myself and my contributions to the world. And for the understanding that there is always more to come, life is never done, and its about the journey, not the destination.

PaPa · 12-30-2012, 12:01 AM

I am thankful for the way my life has unfolded recently. I hope the world feels the vibes that I would like this unfolding to continue for the best. I also hope that I accomplish what it is I have in store for the next 6 months. My Gawd if I can pull this off, then I can do anything!!
