Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from theindiegeek!

Last Sunday my pastor prayed a prayer that really hit home.  I don’t remember it word for word, so here’s how it hit me.

I am thankful for my student loans, because it means I have an education.

I am thankful for my car repair bill, because it means I have transportation.

I am thankful for my long drive to work, because it means I am employed.

I am thankful for my taxes, because it means I have an income.

I am thankful for having to take my dog outside at 3AM in the rain, because it means I have companionship.

I am thankful for long lines at the grocery store, because it means I am able to eat.

I am thankful for chores, because it means I have a place to live.

I am thankful for my alarm clock, because it means I have something to wake up for.

I am thankful for annoying relatives, because it means I have a family.

 

Happy thanksgiving, everyone.

    That is an excellent perspective on life. Not just during Thanksgiving, but should be remembered and kept close at hand all year round.
