There are many things to be thankful for right now. Family, friends, health, and running water! This past Sunday night, a pipe broke at my house. I had to find a plumber on a Sunday evening! That's not an easy task. I called several different companies, none of whom were open. Finally, I hired one guy and he agreed to come out and fix the problem -- for $440.00. Ouch!!
Long story short, he fixed the pipe by about 9:00 p.m. and we only went without running water for about seven hours. When you can't wash your hands whenever you want to, you begin to appreciate little things like on-demand water. This all made me think about other simple things that I'm thankful for. In no particular order:
- Oxygen
- Sunshine
- Stars at night
- The moon
- The sound of wind in the trees
- My wife
- My kids
- My full head of hair
- Mexican food
- Being able to type pretty fast
- A great staff at work
- A great church we belong to
- Body pillows
- Dogs
- Cereal
- Music and my guitar
I could go on and on... What are some things that you take for granted?
