I haven't been very good with my "I'm thankful for" 's... I have a lot to be thankful for and I'm trying to recognize those things every day. Today I am incredibly thankful for my book group. Not only are they wonderful friends that I love spending time with, we have read an array of books that I would have never touched otherwise. These books are an eye-opener to the luxuries that we savor each and every day. Just the other day Joe said to me "we live in a lap of luxury". I said, I don't think it's luxury and he said, "Yes it is!" I guess when you think about it, we have so many things that many people in the world would never even dream of having. They're just grateful if they had a little food that day... or week. I am grateful for my life and my family and the luxuries we so often forget are luxuries.
