there are a lot of things that we should be thankful of but some people doesnt have the necessary time to see or think about it because we sometimes think or look for the thing we dont have because we dont see how much we have to be thankful for the blessings we dont see but infact they are big things to be thankful for,. i have lots of thingd to be thankful of thats why i never intend to get frustrate easily but the more i've should be thankful of is the life god given to me and for letting me have awonderful family and good people that surrounds me how about you guys what are the things you should be thankful of?

Hi, You are very right. We all should be thankful for what we have. So many people are greedy these days and want, want, want. I think it's terrible. I have a lot to be thankful for myself. I have a house to live in, food to eat, a wonderful family, good friends and enough money to keep me comfortable. Happy MyLotting, Char

I wholeheartedly agree with you that there are lots of things we should be thankful for, no matter how good or bad things have been for us. Often we become complacent or we take things for granted, or like a given without remembering to show appreciation for them. I thank God for all blessings that He has given to me and to my loved ones. Everyday that I am living, all the wonderful relationships that I get to share with those I cross path with, the love and care shown by family and friends, all the physical and spiritual things that are provided for me to live, the material comforts that I can afford for myself and my family, the peace that I enjoy, the protection that I get from harm and danger, and much much more... these are things that I am always thankful for....because I know God is at work making these things happen.

good day. Yes in my end there's a lot of things I wanted to give thanks to. First, my lovely fiancee and her career. Second, people that support me and those I care. Third,for each morning that I'd wake up, live and share my life with those people.

Most of the time -- at any time of the day -- I just say "Thank you God for the miracle of being alive!" And I truly mean it. Of course, he showers me with so many blessings, many of which I take for granted but somehow, I always realize that nothing good or wonderful is ever possible without Him.

I guess I am thankful that I am still alive and sane, and that I have a boyfriend now.

I'm thankful for waking up everyday, my husband, my health, my family, friends, having a roof over my head, food on the table, clothes to wear. You name it I'm thankful for everything I have, thankful to God for giving me a second chance, I didn't deserve it but he gave it to me anyway....God Bless

hi Heart.. well, there are a lot of things for me to be thankful for. I'm thankful that God loved me even though i'm not perfect. I'm thankful that He provides for my every need and even more than what i need, I'm thankful that He knows me better than I know myself because it's good to know that God knows my strengths and weaknesses. I'm thankful that God is a faithful God, a God who is always there for me.. He is my best friend.. I'm thankful that He gave me a very loving family, a comfortable home, and wonderful friends.. I'm also thankful for each day of my life for i believe that each day when i wake is a blessing from God.. I would also like to thank God for sending me into a university where i could study, and for not leaving me whenever i feel alone.. I'm also thankful for the chances that God has given me in my life, for sending Jesus Christ to be my Savior and for calling me as His own.. God has been there for me through thick and thin.. God has been so good to me up to the point where i feel that my "Thank You's" are no longer enough for what He has done for me.. I hope that you also feel the same as i do in thanking God..

There are many things that I should be thankful for. By just waking up in the morning and sleeping well at night are already great things for me to thank God. We tend to overlook those simpler things and focus on bigger situations that are complicated and confusing.

I am so thankful that I was born into a family with so much love.My family has always been there for me when I needed them the most, no matter what the situation was, I could always depend on them for comfort and support. Then I want to thank him for my children and my grandchildren.For a roof over my head, a car to drive.Food to eat, cloths to wear, Good friends.Income to sustain me.A reasonable portain of health and strenth.

There are lots of things I'm thankful for - aged parents who are healthy and happy, caring siblings and a wonderful spouse! I live in a relatively peaceful country, with the usual rumblings and all, but it's still good living. We enjoy relative freedom of travel, speech and expression. We are sad to hear of tragic happenings in other parts of the world, hence I'm really thankful that we are safe and sound here!

We should be thankful for having parents and/or relatives that took care of us. Many people lack such attention and love, and those who don't usually treat them like common people. We must remember that our parents/relatives have devoted a big part of their life to us, and treat them with this idea in mind. I guess this question is so important to me because now i live far away from my parents, and try to please them and visit as often as i can. Talking about practical things...I am thankful for having internet )) It opens the world to us, and makes us want to know more and more.
