LAWRENCE, Kan. – It’s Thanksgiving, so it helps to express gratitude for whatever we feel thankful for today. Those who can be in a Thanksgiving state of mind throughout the year are very fortunate.
Here’s my top 20 list.
I am thankful for:
- Life and health.
 - Friends and family.
 - Sunrise and sunset.
 - Teachers.
 - Our readers.
 - The hundred daily kindnesses we run across without even thinking about them.
 - Laughter.
 - The ability to think.
 - A nice Thanksgiving feast.
 - Our freedoms.
 - Those who help make sure that we keep our freedoms.
 - All of those people in our career fields and in our lives who have gone before us and made a way for us.
 - The ability of the body to repair itself.
 - The beautiful landscapes that may be discovered on earth.
 - A good book.
 - Music.
 - Modern technology and innovation.
 - A good game of Scrabble.
 - Creativity.
 - For nice weather and many other things, too numerous to mention.
