Thanksgiving Thoughts

I am thankful for my country with its message of freedom for all
that somehow wormed its way into my head past all my programming
and inspired me

I am thankful for Neil Diamond and his ability to weave into his songs.feelings powerful enough to get past my walls I Am, I Said opened my eyes .

I am thankful for caring therapists who supported me despite the incredible toll it took on them and helped me find myself.

I am thankful for all those who believed my story when I could hardly believe it myself. Their acceptance helped me to accept me.

I am thankful for those who continue to support me despite my flaws. They remind me I am worth caring about.

I am thankful for Arabian horses for infusing passion into my life.

I am thankful for a mortgage that I can actually afford to pay.

I am thankful for the opportunity to put too much food onto the table on the day of Thanksgiving.

I am thankful that at my age I can still work with those horses and chase this dream.

and I am even thankful for blogger without which I wouldn't have found a great circle of new friends.

I'm thankful for The One in the heavens who created this earth.

I'm thankful for my family (even though they are mean to me, well mostly my twin, mom and dad are the meanest to me, always being mean or teasing me, or acting in ways to purposely annoy me.. my dad can be particularly annoying on purpose sometimes.. my other sister and brother (probably cause they've grown up and "flew the nest") aren't mean to me anymore).

I'm thankful for life, love, animals, and Arabian horses, and all the beauty in this world (which certainly includes those Arabian horses :D).

I'm thankful for friends and good people.

I'm thankful for the internet and technology.

I'm thankful for you, and all the helpful and useful information I've learned from you on your blog.
