    I am grateful for the basic necessities of life. A roof over my head, clothes on my back and food in my stomach.:flowerforyou:

    I am grateful for the small things in life, like talking to the neighbour over the fence, being able to take the dog for a walk, sitting on the swing on the porch with hubby in the evening, enjoying the birds in the morning, or the laughter of the children down the street. :flowerforyou:

    I'm grateful for the people who say red wine just might be beneficial for health. Because even if they're wrong, it gives me an excuse to have a glass or two anyway!

    Thankful for btente who got me thinking of all my blessings... My family and I sponsor 2 brothers who live in Niger. They have 6 other siblings and live in a small hut with a dirt floor. Their nearest water source is about a half a mile away so trips to get water for the family are numerous. I'm so very thankful that they are both healthy. We also sponsor Catherine in Uganda. She is 7 and she and her parents are unbelievably thankful that she gets to attend school where she will get a free meal everyday. Lastly, we sponsor Slanda, a beautiful 12-year old Haitian girl whose art would blow your mind. She is not hungry and gets to attend school regularly. For these things, I am so very humbly thankful.

    Thank you, btente!

    Thanks for the thread! Today, I feel most grateful for...

    ...MFP, and that it's free so I can participate! I'm grateful for the insanely delicious pleasure of home grown tomatoes every summer. I'm grateful for nurses and hospice volunteers, especially for how their gentle ways miraculously soothe us all. I'm grateful for my work, both the livelihood it provides and the chance to go make a difference every day. I'm grateful that my family is tucked into the enduring shelter and joy of a ridiculously large and close knit extended family. I'm grateful for old photos, robust laughter, NPR and music on the radio, soft cotton t-shirts, and books from the library. I'm grateful for historians who work to preserve times and places for us, poets who give rhythm to the tiny moments of our life, and artists who help us see things from a new perspective. I'm grateful for prayers. I'm grateful for hugs.

    I am grateful that my health is so good I raise German Shepherds for SAR ,search and rescue
    I am grateful to live on 100 acres of beautiful land so I can get up in the morning and all I hear are birds and nature
    I am grateful God gave us the gift of love so we can share all around us animals included what it feels like
    I am grateful for this board so we can show each other that they do matter and we are here to help

    I'm grateful for Mike, who created MFP for us all for free. It changed my life. It probably isn't an exaggeration to say it saved my life.

    I am grateful for small miracles everyday. The sun rising in the morning. A cool breeze on a hot day. The sounds of waves lapping against the bank. The twinkle in my husband's eyes. The smell of a new born baby. :flowerforyou:
