Time to be grateful

Being Thanksgiving time, I have been thinking a lot about the things that I am grateful for. I've heard several times that it is a healthy habit to have a "gratitude journal" and I absolutely agree, so I started one. I thought I'd share some of it with you all. I am grateful for:
  • a loving and wonderful husband
  • healthy and beautiful children
  • supportive friends and family
  • belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
  • a great childhood and caring parents
  • an amazing body (not in the aesthetic sense, but in the functional sense)
  • a beautiful, safe place to live
  • an able mind and willing teachers
  • the chance to live in Switzerland
  • traveling to new places
  • color
  • scriptures
  • music
  • the different seasons
  • temples
  • transportation
  • books, libraries, bookstores
  • art and photography
  • flowers
  • the internet
  • living in a free country and the people that work to keep it that way
  • diversity
  • chocolate
  • sunshine and warm weather
  • advances in medicine and technology
  • wonderful memories
  • laughter
  • SLEEP!!!
