Happy Turkey Day!!!

I totally ripped this off of another blog - I thought it was really good....

If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep - you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace - you are among the top 8% of the worlds wealthy.

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness - you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation - you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.

If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than three billion people in the world.

If your parents are still alive and still married - you are very rare, even in the United States.

If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful - you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.

If you can hold some one's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder - you are blessed because you can offer healing touch.

If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.

Things I am Thankful for...

My wonderful husband & son - they keep me laughing.

All our great family and friends - they all do so much for us - We Love You All!

My house, car, cell phone & Ipod - I don't know what I would do with out these. I am really thankful to live in this day and age. I would never have survived as a pioneer.

What are you thankful for?
