Sunshine Streaming in My Window
I'm thankful for...
Sunshine streaming in through my kitchen windows greeting me as I feed
my dog and cat and make my coffee.
A warm house on a cold winter's day!
The ability to read an inspirational chapter of a book.
Food in my refrigerator to make all of my meals today.
Great health!
Almost 8 hours of restful sleep last night.
The freedom to chose to drive to my church and worship.
The ability to bless someone today and this week
with a meal or some other act of kindness.
What are you thankful for today?

Stay blessed, @violetmed. Your post reminded me of these wise words by Meister Eckhart: "If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is Thank You, it will be enough."
I'm thankful for Steemit, and this new, generous community to share my life and writing with. Here's a praise poem of mine you might appreciate:
Breath
Beneath the intricate network of noise
there’s a still more persistent tapestry
woven of whispers, murmurs and chants
It’s the heaving breath of the very earth
carrying along the prayer of all things:
trees, ants, stones, creeks and mountains alike
All giving silent thanks and remembrance
each moment, as a tug on a rosary bead
while we hurry past, heedless of the mysteries
And, yet, every secret wants to be told
every shy creature to approach and trust us
if only we patiently listen, with all our senses.
Thank you @yahialababidi for your reply! Your poem is beautiful. Thanks for sharing it!
Kind of you to say! It’s good to be heard :)
Good friends/family and food is what I am thankful for :)

Hey @violetmed... I see you're "pushing the boundaries" a bit, and getting a little philosophical. I like it. Keep exploring the more metaphysical aspects of the flowers/plants/etc...
Health, my family, my bf and sun.. That´s what im thankful for not for today but everyday!
Have a nice day :)
Yes, it's good that you are thankful for those things everyday! Hope your day/night is great also!
