Be Thankful Thanksgiving Poem
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfilment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.
What you are thankful for? I am thankful to have each of you in my life, thankfor for my partner of 8 years even though we not always see eye to eye we are meant to be, for my health, thankful that I was lead to OA, thankful to have a job, I may not have alot of money but I have something better and that is love and I am grateful for each day of that God gives me Life. Now please post what you are thankful for.

Hi, I'm new here and very glad that there's a place for OA members. I've been in OA for just over a year. I joined MFP because I still am having trouble figuring out how much I should be eating, especially since I'm diabetic and pretty active. (This is apparently an odd combo and it's hard to find advice.) I hope having an OA group here will help me stay away from diet mentality and just use this as my food plan, without detracting from my spiritual journey.
I'm thankful for
my loving, supportive husband
my loving, wonderful son
my comfortable home
my step and food sponsors
the fact that I can still dance and ride my bike
all the wonderful people who share their wisdom with me in OA

I am grateful for the knowledge that every day can be Thanksgiving day! I am also grateful for OA and this tracking tool that helps facilitate my food plan. My name is Tom. I have been in overeaters anonymous for many years, but have been abstinent again only since April. It's great to see other members of the program here on this website and using this tracking tool. I want to wish everyone a safe, healthy and abstinent holiday season.0
