Never take for granted

  1. God. I never take him for granted anymore.
  2. Friends.  I lost a friend from my Bible study. She fought the great fight for a long time but is at peace now.
  3. The nice weather. It can change so quick.  Grateful for a nice sunny day and seeing things melt. Spring fever anyone?
  4. My son.  He talks of leaving Duluth and moving towards the Cities this Fall.  I will miss him but enjoy each time we get together.
  5. A roof over my head.  I feel for people who were on the streets, especially earlier in the winter.  
  6. Laughter.  I can laugh at lots of things and it does me good.  It is especially good when I can laugh at myself. 
  7. My siblings. They are all older than me and I am grateful they are still all alive.  
  8. A peaceful day.
  9. My job.
