Give Thanks

As Thanksgiving Day has come and gone.

I think the thanking should go on.

 

I give thanks to God for being my everything.

I give thanks to starting a new day breathing.

 

I give thanks for the blessings that grace my life.

I give thanks for the lessons learnt in good times and strife.

 

I give thanks for the loving people in my life, I love you too.

I give thanks for the positive people in my life, thanks for staying true.

 

I give thanks for this blogging journey and the new friends I have made.

I give thanks for my posts which I hope are inspiring and make the grade.

 

I give thanks for freedom of expression and to view the world in all its glory.

I give thanks for the opportunity to give my view on a global story.

 

I give thanks for those who have come in and out of my life and taught a lesson.

I give thanks for knowing when to be confident or humble or listen to reason.

 

I give thanks that I’m learning not to take health for granted.

I give thanks for being able to love and rise again when broken-hearted.

 

I give thanks for walking through those dark days and coming through renewed.

I give thanks for following my own path and appreciating how I am viewed.

 

I give thanks that each new day brings an opportunity to start again.

I give thanks that I can get back up, brush myself off and forget what happened, keeping sane.

 

I give thanks for the angels that keep at bay the troublemaker.

I give thanks for the power of prayer which keeps me close to my maker.

 

Thank you
