Day 19

When I was a little girl my mom sat me down with my little brother and told me that she was expecting another child.  We were so excited and I knew right away that I was going to have a baby sister.  When she came into the world we had were so happy.  Many years later we don't get along.  In fact I have been downright nasty to her when I was younger.  I grew up and changed my ways. But she is not speaking to me now and not taking the chance to really get to know me.  I am grateful for her.  Even though that this life may pass and she may never speak to me again I am grateful that she is a part of my life in some way.

I am grateful for each passing day that I am allowed to remain on this earth.  Each day is a gift and that is why it is called the present.

I am grateful for the sun.  What a perfect set up we have here.  We are perfectly set at just the right angle and just the right space from the sun that we thrive here on Earth.  I know that there are no accidents.  How good God is to us.

I am thankful for the knowledge that there is life after death.  What a bleak life we would live if there was no knowledge of this.

I am also thankful for my family and friends.  What a great support system they are.
