Title: Things to be thankful for thread
Post by: Modat22 on March 25, 2009, 09:59:28 AM
With all the doom and gloom going around figured there might be a place for a thankful thread.

Things I'm thankful for.

I have my health, my dog, a healthy baby, a good family, my eyesight, use of my limbs and a decent nights sleep (occationally)

I am thankful for my wife and the love that we share.  I am thankful to be saved.  I am thankful for the material things we have such as our house (even though it was a huge stresser for a while), a car that runs, and the ability to plow snow for others who cannot do it or afford it on their own.

I am also very thankful to have the FF to hang out at and all you guys to chat with and learn from.  :)

I'm thankful for my family, friends, home, possessions (including the LT40), job and our health.  8)

I'm also thankful for all of the above!

Plus I'm thankful for God and my freedom and our service men for keeping us safe.  My rights as an American and a man named Jason Lewis.  You can hear his show on a radio near you .  Our founding fathers who made this country what it is, not what it's  becoming.  And for the hope of people in America to wake up and vote all the BUMS out and start over with guys like you.

God Bless Us All!

Just returned from work. I am thankful I have a job even though at times I don't like it.

I am thankful for a God who gives me comfort even when things are not going well. Thankful for my family and extended family. The list can go on and on.

I am thankful also for forestryforum and for the start of this thread as it has made me stop and think of what I have to be thankful for.

I'm glad to see this post.  To be greatful is a blessing in itself.  Notice the things we treasure.
not $$ not position, not status, but the love of our family, health, and the strength to persevere

My hats off to you Modat, for starting this thread! Modern life is so hectic and trying at times. Myself for one, and i tend to think many of us need to take pause occationally and look at the really important things in life. Seems like yesterday i was a young hard driven, (keep up with the Jones type). Now that im pushin that senior citizen catagorey, i remember more and more of them good times, and the hard times seem to fade. They say, (with age comes wisdom). For that i am thankful!  bedway

I just like a well balanced dinner in my food for thought is all. And I think folks just think too much on the bad stuff sometimes and just need a little sparkle to look at for a few moments.

And all you great men that are members of this forum and served our country so we can live the lives we do.

For this I am forever thankful.

You allowed me to enjoy the blessing of my family and everyday life. 

I must say I am thankful for this forum too.
