I am grateful for a new year, with a fresh start! The year 2011 brought a lot of experiences in my life that has made me change the way I look at life, and I have truly grown from my challenges and spiritual experiences that I have had. I'm grateful for all of my trials and happy moments! I want to be able to think of ways to be happy EVERY SINGLE DAY! Life is too short to spend it being sad or down. I'm no blogger, so I hope that my desire to do this everyday will continue. I know that if we stay positive, and look up in life, anything negative will become a positive experience! With that said..........Let's Smile!

SMILE #327 Thanksgiving Day

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!  I hope you have a wonderful day, full of smiles!  It's such a wonderful day, to truly reflect on what we are grateful for, and there is so much to be thankful for! 

I was reading in Doctrine and Covenants this morning, and I found it appropriate to share a verse that I read.

D&C 59:7  Thou shalt thank the Lord thy God in all things.

I'm thankful ......

  • that we live in a free country, and have men and women fighting for that freedom everyday.  
  • for my wonderful family, extended and immediate.  I have a wonderful set of parents and in-laws, a wonderful husband who does sooo much for our little family, and wonderful children who truly bring smiles to my face on a daily basis!
  • that I have a God that I can pray to daily, and seek help and guidance from whenever I may need it.  He's kind and gracious and I love Him.
  • for the Book of Mormon, and the words of peace it brings to me daily.
  • for the technology that is ever growing....that way I get to keep in touch with so many wonderful friends and family!
The list of course can go on and on, but those are a few.  Don't forget to share your smile with everyone you meet, they will be ever grateful for your kindness!
