I would like to share one of the thing that I'm really thankful for. I got pregnant at a very young age of 15 and then the father of my son denied us. I was so very down at that time, pondering why he have to leave me. Now, that I am mature enough I come to realize that I'm so thankful that he denied me and my son, Why? It's because if we got married at that time I think my life would be in hell now. I'm currently enjoying the life without him... How about you my fellow myLotter what is the one thing that your thankful for?

Hi there craziestqueenever I think the one thing that I am thankful for in my life is during that portion in my life when I was in high school that I experienced discrimination and bullying by my classmates.I really hate my classmates and the school during that time coz they bring me nothing but pain.But I am glad that I didn't drown myself in sadness instead I continue moving and here I am now I graduated in college while some of my classmates in high school didn't.

What a sad story jordq7. But then good thing that you didn't drown yourself into their drowns. I'm so happy for you! I do believe that those who bully you had and have been paying for their good deeds.

Why would it be that your life will be in hell if you marry him? I want to know so. Whatever it is, I am sure you don't regret that the father of your son left you. I know it has been very painful back then when you got pregnant without him. But you were able to survive. As for me, I am very thankful to the people I have who loves me and how my life is going on right now.

I think that my life would be in hell if I get married at a very young age. I think If I get married it would be so hard on how to be a wife.

I am very thankful with the creator, my family, my favorite games and the living things around our home. At first, I find poverty the worst on earth but now I know how much richness can take away from you. I am an idiot sometimes and I thank myself for that to.

hello, Good for you. One thing that I can be thankful for is when I found my boyfriend. We've been almost 3 years and I am very happy because I choose him not other guys there. Other relationship that I know had already broken but thank god we survived. Because he is not the type of guy who respect and understand my moody attitude. If I lost him I think I will not find like him anymore. right? I always wish that nothing will change between us.

hi craziestqueenever, I to was an unwed mother of two children, and both times I refused to get married just because I was pregnant,,I have always said that when I got married it was because I had all intentions of putting my heart into the marriage...I was truly not ready and it didn't matter what anyone said...I was young and wasn't ready for children let alone marriage...once my children were born know one could tell me I did the wrong thing... I am happy I went that route...I was happy then and I am just as happy now... I would have loved to have been married and a happy family however I truly believe thats not for everyone, and just because I didn't have a hubby and didn't want one at that time, was no reason for me not to have my beautiful children... Thank you God for keeping us safe and getting us through the difficult times.. Yes I was grown enough to birth children but my mind wasn't ready for a marriage.... I am happy for you and your son...God makes a way...always....you just have to believe....

Karma is haunting for that guy! Anyway, my 19-year old girlfriend and bride-to-be delivered our little angel last August 2011. For me, that was the greatest blessing that the Almighty Father had given to us. I'm so thankful and blessed. Now, both of us are doing our best to raise our angel and make her proud that she had parents like us.

my family. i have two kids. i have a wonderful husband. despite the odds, we manage to get by. i believe it is the love and concern we have. these three most important in my life have diverse views and yet we get along comfortably with each other. i have to be thankful for them.

Good for you. There are really a lot of stories like that. I girl got pregnant, then the guy denied the girl and the baby she's carrying.. Then, in some years the girl is thankful that they didn't end up with the guy.. Especially when she saw how the guy treated her current girlfriend or wife (if there is any) now.. Good for you and your son, really! Enjoy life and be happy!

Hello craziestqueenever, That's why it is said "Whatever God does is for the good!". Imagine if he would have married you and left you after some time.Its better that he did not marry you that's the reason you are standing on your own now otherwise it would have taken some more time for you to do so. I am thankful to God to blessed me with 2 beautiful kids my life would have been nothing if these were not in my life.

Awesome revelation! I hope you and your boy live a fruitful life and he becomes successful. That in itself would be rewarding enough for all the hardships that you will have to go through. As for the question, I am most thankful for my consciousness and how it enriches the experiences that I am going through my life.

hi there, It's good to know that you are ok now without him. Nobody needs him anyways. Yes, that is right, enjoy your life. I know it may sadden you sometimes, but keep it up. I think that, he will never be a good father to anyone. He is irresponsible. Sorry for saying this, i just hate those kind of people. Well anyways, I'm thankful for a lot of things in life. I'm thankful that i have a wonderful family, a loving husband and an adorable baby. I'm also grateful for my friends, and the one who introduce me here in mylot. LOL. happy lotting..
