With Thanksgiving approaching what do you give thanks for:

2) My son, Ryan
3) My daughter, Lauren
4) Our health, we are relatively healthy as a family
5) Enjoyment of golf
6) Enjoy my job
7) Good friends and family
8) Live in America

What are you thankful for in your life?


Someone said its a great ideal to give thanks every morning it put us in a appreciative mood to start the day ahead.

I also like to give thanks for free speech in America and for the internet.

Thank you for a new opportunity to make my life better and to make others life better!

Well said!

Give thanks to everything because as Enstein onced said, "You can treat life as ordinary or you can treat life as a miracle!" I read that on a bumper sticker in San Francisco.

My list is similar to yours, and here it is:

1. Life itself, and the Creator who gave it to me (even though some days, I ask, "Why me?")

2. My family----good wife, Terri the Terrific, good children---John and Leanne, GREAT grand daughter---THE RYLEIGH GIRL, GREAT BROTHER, who is no longer with us, two good sisters, great parents and grand parents ----all of whom taught me the VALUE OF HARD WORK and taking care of the family, good mother-in-law, who is also not with us any longer (just like my Mom and Dad)

3. Good job and the company is doing well in the recession so it looks like the job will last

4. Excellent health for AN OLD, OLD GUY who is a half century PLUS TEN

5. The GREAT GAME OF GOLF------and how my son, daughter, and 4 year grand daughter (!!!!!) all play and love the game. Thanks, Dad, for introducing the game to me and my brother. My family still runs a good tournament in my brother's name. It is a tournament for junior girls and boys and we have been holding it for 29 years!!!

6. The US OF A---best country ever; WE will get through this recession!!!

7. This golf forum, which is well run, and even "clips my wings" when I need it

I almost forgot to include this quote with my post:

"Yesterday is HISTORY
Tomorrow is a MYSTERY
And today--------is a GIFT

That is why they call today THE PRESENT!!"

Thanks, God, for the present.
