Day 31

Today I am thankful for enemies.  We, as Christians, have been counseled by the Greatest One of All to love our enemies and to pray for them that use us.  I have had enemies in the past and in the present.  Mostly they have been members of my own family.  I have found that praying for them and forgiving them many times over helps me be more mentally healthy and happier.  I am thankful for that lesson that I have learned.  (Though it isn't always easy to practice it.)

I am thankful for our hill.  Our hill is a beautiful view of the Salt Lake Valley.  If you take 45th south straight up to the east bench past I-215 you will come to a seminary parking lot.  Pull in there facing west and enjoy the view.  I love going up there with Ryan.  It is a good time for some good chats and fun times.  So many wonderful memories with our hill.

I am thankful for crab legs.  Sweet gold and lots of work but so worth it.  We celebrated that Ryan got a job today.  I ordered crab legs for the first time in many years.  I love them.  I am thankful for the crustacean that gave its life so that I might eat.  

I am thankful for kitchen gadgets.  So many gadgets so little kitchen space.  Someday I will have a huge kitchen with lots of cool gadgets for my kitchen.  Including a pasta maker, professional grade Kitchen Aid, and a professional grade ice cream maker.

I am thankful for knives.  We do so much with knives every day and yet we never pause to wonder what we would do without them.
