We don’t have a Thanksgiving Day in Australia but I thought it a good topic to reflect on for today. I am thankful for many things (that I mostly take for granted). Here are some things that come to mind:

• Good health and pain-free
• A happy relationship with my amazing husband
• Three adult sons and their wives and partners
• Two gorgeous grandsons
• Friends and family near and far
• Bloggers all over the world that touch my life
• I can see, hear, touch, smell, walk, use my hands for a multitude of actions
• I am able to live in a peaceful environment
• The Indian Ocean (Geographe Bay) is only 5-10 minutes walk from home
• I have ample means to meet all my needs
• I am free to vote for whom I want at Local, State and Federal elections and live in a democratic country
• Access to all the technology I want
• Freedom to choose about my spiritual beliefs and practices
• More books than I will ever have time to read
• Access to further education
• Freedom to travel in Australia and most places overseas
• Leisure time at my disposal allowing me to write blogs, take photos and enjoy my new vegetable garden
• Access to all the facilities at the Lifestyle Village where I live
• My home has access to heating and cooling air conditioners

Well, that is not bad for starters! Wishing folks in the USA a happy Thanksgiving and the rest of us, a day to be thankful for all our blessings.

cheers
