I am....

As I sit here at my computer I get a full view of our back and side yard. Today a breeze is blowing through the open windows -not a chilly breeze, a refreshing sweet smelling breeze-, the birds are chirping, the sun is shining and the smell of dinner is in the room.

Today I am thankful.

I am thankful for everything that I have. Everything.

I don't know really how to say it. But I am just not grateful for my 'things'. I am grateful for all I have been given. I am thankful for everything that I have made for myself in this life. I chose wisely you might say. Some may say you never chose at all, it was destiny from the day you were born. Some may say, your life is what you make it with what you have been given.

No matter how it came to be. It is mine. MINE.

This life I lead, I chose, I live, I strive for, I love, I feel. It is mine.

For that I am thankful. I am grateful. I am loved.
