I am not thankful for anything. I AM GRATEFUL for every blessing in my life and in my family's life. The Lord has blessed us beyond belief. I think we should change it from thanksgiving, to gratefulgiving....and not just one day a year, but EVERY DAY of the year....

That I am ALIVE (after all, my abusive, violent, sociopathic ex burglarized my HOME in August 2006 -- the only Reason I am alive is because I was out paying my BILLS).
That I am FINALLY FREE -- as an Empty-Nesting Single Retiree
That I have my HOME and Pensions ... and have the time to now start enjoying life a little bit.
That I have wonderful siblings -- who were there for me no matter what -- and have supported me in my decisions over the years
That I have wonderful NEW friends ... and they have welcomed me quite nicely
That I FINALLY have a Special Someone in my life -- God had this "Surprise" in store for me this year ... I just had to go through the sorrows to find the Silver Lining .. and a Kind, Gentle, Caring and Loving REAL Man who does Love me unconditionally!
That I was able to SERVE my Country (and Honorably Retire from the US Military), and that my siblings are STILL serving (and have survived multiple combat tours).
That I am able to remain ACTIVE in my Empty-Nesting Retiree Years .. in mind, body, and spirit. That I can enjoy this activity through going BACK to College -- this time for FUN!
That I have found NEW Hobbies and Interests at this stage of my life -- and am in transition!

My beautiful wife.
My highly successfull twin boys, both 35 and high achievers in IT Sales in both Canada and London England.
My friends of 30 years, 8 guys, not too many people can say that.
Universal health care in Canada.
Our family financial security.
Spending the winter in Mexico and Cuba.
The high moral principles which my wife and I were able to instill in our children. Due in part to our Scottish upbringing.
Our lifestyle and quality of life.
All of this was earned by very hard work by my family. We immigrated from Scotland to Canada with "no money", " never inherited anything from anybody. (Sorry, I forgot I inherited some debt)

I'm thankful for my family... friends, health & most of all, Jesus!
Lord i'm thankful for my blessings
everything that you gave
Times when danger was around me
My life lord you saved
Where would I be without your love
Where would I be without your grace
You didn't have to do it but I'm glad you did
Can't pretend that what I got
I got it on my own
Every move that i made
Can't say I never been wrong
When I fell you picked me up again
Thought I brought it on myself
I can always depend on you
Whenever I need help

That I am alive, I am healthy and still have all my marbles. And for everything good and bad that life has given me, all the experiences that have taught me to be person I am today. And for being where I am today.
