Gratitude


This post is on the personal side of things- With tomorrow being Thanksgiving, I have a lot to be grateful for. Right now it may not seem like it, with all the financial distraught, but I live in a blessed country. With Freedom that others fight for me to maintain, and more often than not I take for granted, I have a job, a roof over my head and a surplus of material things. I have more opportunities to be successful at life, my career and my relationships than most in today's world. I have a family who loves me, and a husband who works hard to make sure we have a good life. He is ambitious, motivated, successful, smart, my Friend, and best of all he loves me. He works hard for each of us here in the homeland- when we have our scary moments in life when we don't know what to do, he is there to make sure all is well. I am grateful for AL
L those who are here to protect us as a society so that we can carry on with our day to day lives and not have to worry about the horrible and sad things that happen all around us.

I am grateful for my friendships and my dearly loved ones, those that are near and afar. Your impact on my life has shaped me in the paths we walk together. I am who I am because of you, and for that I am truly grateful. My faith in a supreme being, my Father in Heaven, and the love he shows me everyday- Is beautiful in it's self. I believe that through the mere example of loving one another for who we each are and what we bring to this life is a lesson in life we all need to learn. Those that live their life and show their love for the savior in ALL they do, teach me. Thank you for that. I love you all, and thank you for being who you are.
Happy Thanks Giving. Be grateful.
Love Al

i'm thankful for cops. except the one that gave me a ticket a few weeks ago, even though it was my fault of course.

I have to say that I am also grateful for what the police force does (even though they [mainly the MP's] may irritate me at times) they have truely made my life seem a lot safer through the past years and events in my life. It is something that a lot of us take for granted because it has always been and will be here to keep us safe even when we aren't aware of what they are doing and sacrificing.

Blair- cops that have given me tickets ( like the one up in CLINTON) im not thankful for either. He gave me one on a Sunday- UGH!!! jerk!

Bethany-Im sure Military Cops are a whole different breed all together. :) Yes they do try to make life lots easier. As do those who fight for our rights and freedom's. Im ever grateful for what Corey is doing- :)
