10 Everyday Things For Which To Be Thankful

After agreeing to host the "Let's Be Thankful Blog Swap" with Alex, I really started thinking about what I'm really thankful for, and [for swap box purposes] how to possibly express that gratitude into "stuff."  Putting those two together, I came up with a list of things that I am thankful for every single day of my life.  I hope that many of these will also connect with you:
  • Family: parents, siblings, grandparents [especially if you're lucky enough to still have them in your life]
  • Those you share your daily life with: significant other, roommates, coworkers, guy you wave to outside the coffee shop each morning
  • Animals
  • Teachers: both in school and those who simply inspire us to be better people
  • The presence of a healthy body and brain
  • Warm clothes and a comfortable bed
  • Social media and computers: even though there are so many downsides, think about all of the knowledge they help us attain and the people far away with whom they help us to stay close
  • Delicious and nutritious food
  • Kind words: from a friend, a stranger, or even yourself
  • Any little thing that will make you smile today
And don't forget, you have until tomorrow to sign up for the swap now that the ideas are flowing!
