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.
