What are you most thankful for?

I am thankful that no matter how bad I have it, no matter how angry I get with my government, no matter how much I get annoyed with the little things in my daily routine, that I am still living in the greatest nation on earth. I was born overseas and spent half my life outside the States, but I am always thankful for what we have here in America.

What I love more than anything.

I am thankful to not being homeless and for a sense of where my life is going at last.  I am thankful for my own daughter and our family and most of all,  thankful I live in the best country in the world.

<p>Sir I'm thankful for joining the Military when I did. It made me a better person.</p><p>I'm thankful for having the career I have now, it's something that started out as a hobby.</p><p>I'm thankful for all the people whom I meet in my life, each where and still are, Teachers, doers and learners.</p><p>I'm thankful for being here in RP, 2 months ago I knew nothing about this, but now that I do know, it is really wonderful to share my experiences, thoughts and aware that we all perhaps something in common.</p><p>I'm thankful that I was homeless and have meet allot of wonderful people during that journey in my life.</p><p>I'm thankful I have my family, even though I was elected to cook the turkey, I find that with them it is very enjoyable to show them that me dad, husband is very level headed and can handle any situation with ease. Even if I have to be iron chef&nbsp; lol.</p><p>I am very, very thankful for my little one, my only son Jonathan whom is 4 years old now and entered my life. When I look at him, I see myself when I was his age, he is very close to me and perhaps far closer then anyone else, but he teaches how to be a better person and father.&nbsp; With the amount of energy he has I can connect with him and understand him were many others aren't able too.</p><p>I need to check up on the turkey now, because Jonathan said he's not going to eat until the turkey is done&nbsp; lol</p>

Two words - my family

Boots on the ground!!!

No matter what is going on this this great nation of ours, or what is going on with me. I am constantly thankful for my supporting wife and children. They are what drive me every day to do my best. Without them I would not be where I am today.

I must however be serious for a moment because I have so very much to be grateful for TODAY:
God
Sobriety
Family
Job
Country
In a nutshell for my entire life because there is nowhere else that I would rather be than right here, right now.

I am thankful for GOD, my beautiful wife, and 3 wonderful children. I am also thankful for all the Soldiers I have had the opportunity to lead, mentor, coach, and train to be the next leaders in this great Army

Its easy to forget, especially going through the tough times, just how much we are blessed with and how much we have to be thankful for.

God above for his blessings
Life - almost lost it twice
My parents and my brother for the family I started with
My wife and 3 children for the family we've now become
Who I am and what I've done in 47 years - when one looks at their life it's amazing at the things one forgets that they've done and the places they've been
