Giving Thanks

Giving Thanks is a healthy thing for me to do. No matter how much I have to be grateful for, I can forget, and be a 'winger,' (pronounced 'winjer') as my Australian housemate used to term crybabies. A wonderful husband, a great family, a good job, a warm house with a roof to keep out the rain. Friends who help me to be better, and want me to help them to be better, too. A sense of humor, and the chance to make people laugh. The chance to overwhelm my bad karma with good, to drown out regrets with acts of generosity, to forgive (ouch! That's hard sometimes.) and be forgiven...the chance to forgive myself...

I've just finished reading Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. This book left me with a sense of peace. There are many things for which to give thanks.
