In the past I have used Thankful Thursday posts to write about special events like the Super Bowl or the Olympics. I also have written about helpful items like microwaves & to-do lists.
For today I will keep it simple.
Today, I am thankful for what I have.
Now you may be saying, “of course you are thankful for what you have. How can you be thankful for what you don’t have.”
Too many times I catch myself thinking, “I wish I had this or I wish I had that.” I am always wanting more, sometimes at the expense of appreciating what I have.
It is okay to strive for more, but we all need to remember just how many good things we have. We want to have certain relationships, better looks, and more toys. But don’t forget that you may already have a great family, perfect health and plenty of fun things to keep you busy.
So today I am thankful for what I have and I will spend time reflecting on that instead of worrying about more.
