Thanksgiving Blessings

All month I have been giving thanks for something different each day.  Such a simple, yet significant task, has reminded me to be grateful for the little and big things in life - and everything in between.  

Some days what you love is staring you in the face.  Other days it's not so easy to find something for which to be thankful.  Sometimes you have to step back and really assess a situation to find the silver lining.  I've learned that out of everything - no matter how seemingly bad - comes something good.  It could be the smile of a stranger after a long day at work, a wonderful home-cooked meal, a long conversation with someone special, photographs and memories, or finding a support system in an unexpected place.  

Though November and the traditional season of giving thanks is coming to a close, I think I will continue to try to be thankful for something new each day.  Today I challenge all of you to do the same thing.
