Thanking and Thinking...Success

I am thankful every moment of my life, good or bad. Taking one day out of the year to be "Thankful" seems selfish. It's this time of the year where I hear from family that I hadn't heard from since last year. This is the time of year where people whom I don't really consider friends try to connect with me to make themselves feel better and lastly, it's this time of the year where I mentally go over the past year. This year I lost my stepmother and one of my dogs, Russell. I've had a few friendships end by my choosing. I've made some new friends and even for a brief moment had a crush on a guy.

I'm thankful for everything. I have my health but no medical insurance. That's ok because my doctor will see me without charging. I'm temping but have no permanent job and that too is ok because I meet new people every assignment I take. It also affords me time to write. I've managed to take my life one moment at a time and that's what will make me successful. I know when something negative presents itself, something positive comes to the rescue. I'm learning to turn things around instead of dwelling on the problem, create the solution and move forward.

Have a happy life everyone and live it one moment at a time.
