Thanksgiving 2010: I’ve got lots to be thankful for

Thanksgiving 2010. 

I’ve got lots to be thankful for.

The first people that come to mind are my parents and grandparents.  I am blessed to have my mother, my stepfather, and my maternal grandparents.  From childhood until now, they show me every day that they are all the family I need.

I am thankful that I can, in some small way, repay the incredible debt my mother paid so that I could have all the things that I needed, and some of the things that I wanted growing up.  My goal is to continue to do the same for her.

I am thankful for my friends.  I probably don’t say it enough to them directly.  But I am blessed to have a family of friends, it is one of the few families of our choosing.

I am thankful for the counsel of friends that convinced me to step out on faith and start my own business.  I would have never expected that of myself.  That’s why it’s good to have friends that expect more than you expect of yourself.

I am thankful for my health.  It is something too many of us take for granted. 

I am thankful for anyone who has stopped by blackgirlgrown.  Your continued interest and return visits make this mentally and spiritually worthwhile.

And most incredibly, I am thankful to God for always preparing me for the journey.  I may not understand what He has prepared for me, but I know that He is preparing me for it.

God bless, and enjoy this day of Thanksgiving.
