Life is not always a bed of roses. Even people who we think have the most of what we want in life complain for something. But why not count our blessings instead of tears? What are you thankful for?
I have been blessed with little things in life. I may not have all the things that I wanted but I have what I need in life. The greatest thing I am thankful for is having another chance in life after my brain surgery.
What is yours?

I am thankful that every day I get to wake up and live. 
True, sometimes we tend to look at the bleak side of things and we complain about what's going on in our lives. But if we think about it, there are still those little pleasant things that come our way. We just have to put our attention to it.

@cherigucchi Yes, being able to live for another day is truly a blessing that we should be thankful for.

I think that the very first thing we should be thankful for is what you said already...waking up in the morning.

I have chronic pain and one of the things they want you to do is do a gratitude journal. We focus on the negativity of the pain experience a lot, so it is good to focus on a few things we are thankful for. I am thankful for an understanding spouse, for low pain days and for having a restful day today due to a high pain day.

That is sad to know that you are going through with that but its a good thing that you remain grateful.

God is the main thing that I'm thankful for. Without God, I'd be nothing!!! :)
