Sorry I haven't written in a long time! Nothing happening!
Today, Thanksgiving 2009, I was thinking of things that I am thankful for. People are always talking about things that are actually annoying that you can find some hidden blessing in. For example, "I am thankful for my laundry because it means that I have clothes to wear." Or, "I am thankful for raking leaves because it mean I have a yard of my own."
I thought of a new one, "I am thankful for having the shoulders of a rugby player (yes, my very own, dear brother said this to me, nice) because that means that if I am ever in a natural disaster, I will be able to swim and fight my way to safety."

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving, Amanda! Miss you!
ReplyDeleteSometimes thankfulness is so difficult to keep up with. It's easy to be thankful when things are going swimmingly, but when something is not quite what I'd like it to be or even when the little annoyances of daily life barge in, I become so easily mired in those difficulties. Finding a way to be thankful in that circumstance is truly a blessing straight from the hand of God!
