Sometimes it’s nice to hear what other people are feeling grateful for. It connects us on so many levels. So I thought a great way to start off May would be to ask a few friends and family what they’re thankful for lately. Here’s what they shared:
-“One thing I am beyond thankful for: my fiancé.” – Charlene
-“Family” – Andrea
-“Grateful for the blessing of the different friend groups in my life. They all bring me joy and fill my cup in their own ways.” – Lauren

-“I’m thankful to God for blessing me with an amazing family.” – Ray
-“We’re thankful for the opportunities we have to travel and create everlasting memories together.” – Danny and Lauren Ashley (from Bora Bora)
-“One thing I’m thankful for is my parents and their unconditional love, support, understanding and guidance. Without them I would not be the man I am today.” – Gabe

“Thankful for family. Starting with my grandparents and parents and the sacrifices they went through for us. You would never know they had any hardship, especially starting over in a new country, a new language. So blessed and thankful for them.” – Lilly
“I am soooo thankful for clear scopes, mri’s, and ctscans and for masses that God disappears. For family and friends who lift me/each other up in prayer. I’m thankful for God lining things up and making things that seemed impossible possible. Like most, I’m thankful for my mom, my husband, my kids, my brothers, and my friends. Oh, and for our four-legged, best behaved son,# Pipo! I’m most thankful for life and for second and third chances to get things right.” – Ledys
Thanks for playing, everyone! I’m grateful for all of you! Reading these reminded me how much there is to appreciate, even in the middle of busy weeks or messy days.
The rest of you, what are you thankful for today?
Until next Thursday’s post…si Dios quiere.
