I AM THANKFUL FOR ......

BECAUSE HE/SHE IS NOT OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

THE TEENAGER WHO IS NOT DOING DISHES

BUT IS WATCHING TV, BECAUSE THAT MEANS

HE/SHE IS AT HOME AND NOT ON THE STREETS.

MEANS THAT I, AM EMPLOYED.

BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT I HAVE BEEN

SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS.

SNUG, BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE ENOUGH

TO EAT.

WORK, BECAUSE IT MEANS I, AM IN

THE SUNSHINE.

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

END OF THE PARKING LOT, BECAUSE IT

MEANS I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING AND

FOR MY HUGE HEATING

BILL, BECAUSE IT

MEANS I AM WARM.

THAT SINGS OFF KEY, BECAUSE IT MEANS

THAT I CAN HEAR.

EARLY MORNING HOURS, BECAUSE IT
