What are YOU thankful for?

Today, and every day,
I am thankful for the wonderful things in my life.
I'm thankful for my husband.
I'm thankful for my children.
I'm thankful for my family.
I'm thankful for my friends.
I'm thankful for my health.

But . . .
I'm also thankful for
pain
betrayal
loss
ugliness
anger
hate
bitterness
childishness
stupidity.

Having to deal with these things,
rise above them,
defeat them,
and realize where they dwell,
has made me stronger,
smarter,
craftier,
more resilient,
braver,
and self-reliant.

What are YOU thankful for?
