My Own Personal Thanksgiving

Posted on May 7, 2010 By Sister Rain

Today is my birthday. The start of a new year for me. The start of whatever my 29th year will bring. (Do I hear laughing?)

But more than my birthday, it’s turning into a day of thanks for me. Messages have been coming into my BlackBerry from my friends wishing me well, saying some very sweet things. The sun is shining, I’m having lunch with a friend I also consider my Sister, I’ve got a job interview this afternoon and tonight I am seeing my favorite singer/songwriter, Dan May, and after that will come home and watch the Phillies on TiVo.

There is so much in my little world to be grateful for. I try to remember that every day but I am human and sometimes I am sorry to say all I can see is the negative. I do give thanks every day but today my blessings are more evident than ever.

Another year older, another year maybe a teeny tiny bit wiser.

This life, my life, is good.
