Happy Thanksgiving!

My heart near to bursting with gratitude. =]

Poem Artwork

With all of the bad news we've had this
year, we need some reasons to be

"ThankFULL"

You wake up this morning?  Take a breath.
Another one.  Doesn't it feel good!

You can see.  Hear.  Taste.  Touch.  Smell.
Walk.  Love.  That, my friends, is life!

Thank Him for this moment.  This one.  And
this one.  Who knows what the next will hold?

You have a roof overhead, food in your
stomach?  Many others aren't as blessed.

You have loved ones?  Others are missing
theirs, especially with the holidays coming on.

Thank Him for the sun, the rain, the clouds,
the wind, even the storms:  He's in control.

And here you thought you had nothing at all.

Count your blessings.
Thank You, God, for
what you've given me,
and for friends I count
 as family here at AD ...
I am thankFULL.

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (11/23)

Thank you Karla.... too often we do take the blessings we have for granted... unless we've been around the block and back...sometimes with little or nothing....then...it becomes quite easy to be grateful and thankful....and especially to have a giving heart.... as you do.

After reading your poem I am moved by your innocence and gratitude, but you left me with that last word with a nagging question, are you a Ford pick-up by any chance?
