BritinUSA Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Last year I asked this question and got some great responses. Now here we are again, just a few days before Thanksgiving. What are we all thankful for this year...? Here's a link to last years, "Thanksgiving Question" What were you thankful for in 2006 ? My list for 2007... I am thankful for my friends, my family and my health. I am thankful that there are people in this country that put their lives on the line for people like me. I am thankful for our freedom, for our rights, for our country. I am thankful to God for providing all the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbadaboom Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 1. The wonderful/beautiful man whom so graciously signed "Organ Donor" on the back of his license which granted my 5 y.o. niece a new kidney. PLEASE, Be an organ donor. 2. The many blessings that God has granted me and my family. 3. My friends. 4. Our Troops and their willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our Freedoms and those of others. These are things that come to mind immediately. I really have so much to be thankful for that I don't have time to type it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiG Lady Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I'll let you know after my Second-Interview tomorrow for a job I was First-Interviewed for last Thursday. Oh, and I've been an organ donor forever. Wouldn't have it any other way. Speaking of medical stuff, I'm thankful I have no chronic ailments and take NO medications whatsoever and pretty much never have. (And, boy, is it cheaper that way!)

bountyhunter Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm thankful for my family and the usual blessings. And I am thankful that the present government will be forced to adopt new leaders in one year, so there is a chance we will get someone better.

Paul Santiago Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I was going to try to post something witty and smarta$$ about losing my job last month but got to thinking. I've ridden escort for 2 funerals in 2 days. Yesterday, for a retired Korean War Vet and today for a young Airman killed in Italy in a blackhawk crash. Today was especially hard as I stood next to the hearse holding our Flag. The family was mostly all Air Force; father- active, 2 sisters- active, and a younger brother enlisting in the Army. Brother and sisters were pall bearers at the church. I looked at the family and the Airman's young wife and 3 month old daughter and I'm glad I had my sunglasses on. So, what am I thankful for? I'm thankful for the men and women who have chosen to serve our country. I'm thankful for the support the families of the servicemen and women give them so they be away from home and concentrate on the job they have to do. I'm thankful for the privilege the familes give us to ride in Honor and Respect for their fallen loved one. I'm thankful for my healthy, happy family. Best wishes, all.
