I am Thankful : FOR THE WIFE
WHO SAYS IT'S HOT DOGS TONIGHT,
BECAUSE SHE IS HOME WITH ME,
AND NOT OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE. FOR THE HUSBAND WHO IS ON THE
SOFA BEING A COUCH POTATO,
BECAUSE HE IS HOME WITH ME AND
NOT OUT AT THE BARS. FOR THE TEENAGER WHO IS COMPLAINING ABOUT DOING DISHES BECAUSE IT MEANS SHE
IS AT HOME, NOT ON
THE STREETS. FOR THE TAXES I PAY
BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM EMPLOYED. FOR THE MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A
PARTY BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE
BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS. FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT. FOR MY SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE FOR A LAWN THAT NEEDS MOWING, WINDOWS THAT NEED CLEANING, AND GUTTERS THAT NEED
FIXING BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE A
HOME. FOR ALL THE COMPLAINING I
HEAR ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT
BECAUSE IT MEANS WE HAVE
FREEDOM OF SPEECH. FOR THE PARKING SPOT I FIND AT THE FAR END OF THE PARKING LOT BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING AND I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH TRANSPORTATION. FOR MY HUGE HEATING BILL BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM WARM. FOR THE LADY BEHIND ME IN THE CINEMA WHO SINGS
OFF KEY BECAUSE IT MEANS I CAN
HEAR. FOR THE PILE OF LAUNDRY
AND IRONING BECAUSE IT MEANS I
HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR. FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES AT THE END OF THE DAY BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD. FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM ALIVE
