Giving Thanks

I know I may sometimes seem gloomy and jaded, but I really have quite a few things to be thankful for this year.

I am thankful for having a roof over my head. I sometimes take it for granted that I have a home, and not a house, but I do appreciate it.

Along with the home, comes great food. I have never had to sleep my hunger away like so many people in the city, and world, do.

I am thankful for my family and friends. Although I may be guarded with them about my personal life, I do open myself up to help them when they are in need.

And I am thankful for having heat and clothes to keep me warm.
