I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving!! Time passes so quickly!! Christmas is around the corner and then it will be 2010!!! Who thought we would even live past Y2K??
Anyway, Sunday our speakers in our Church Ward spoke about being grateful and I think it touched a lot of people. The last speaker was Brother Penrod and he actually sat down and typed a list of everything he could think of that he was grateful for. Many types we forget what little things we are so blessed with and we take for granted. He had over 300, so this inspired me to do the same but since I don't have an hour to sit here and do this I just wanted to do a few. It was interesting because Brother Penrod stated that it doesn't always have to be spiritual and he made such an impacted. So here is my list and I encourage you to try to do the same or just next time you are driving you can turn off the radio and think of as many things you are grateful for! Good luck!!
