Over the last few days, I have realized that simple things have a lot of impact.
I am thankful for a full pantry. I am thankful for clean water. I am thankful for a roof over our heads. I am thankful for health.
When I was growing up, I was raised by my grandparents. My grandfather was a fireman, so he was gone some of the time. However, we had a warm house, food in the pantry, and a bottle of ice water in the fridge.
Around Christmas, my grandfather got so excited to see us unwrap gifts that "Santa came early" most of the time.
Life was simple, but it was filled with warmth, love, and security.
I think, sometimes, we miss the blessings that we have right under our noses because we keep wanting just a bit more. I just know that I am blessed everywhere I go.
I am so thankful.
