what I am thankful for

11/25/2010

1. family
2. friends
3. A roof over me which will always be there free or not.
4. the food which I enjoy. Wether it is going out for chinese food or my mom's great cooking.
5. clothes, wether it's dress shirts and pants, redsox t-jerseys and jeens, or the 5 ft of closet space that is just sport's jerseys.
6. my mental and physical health and that of my friends and family
7. my memory and the ability to learn which has abled me to ern 3 degrees and some street smarts.
and not to mention the math skills which allows me to do dificult math in my head faster than you can put it into a calculater.
8. that I had a loving, caring and nurturing childhood
9. freedom and all which the founding fathers of this country gave to us and the men and women who has and continue to to fight for those rights which you and I take for granted.
10. To have desire and passion for sports, spacificly baseball, and music, spacificly Bon jovi. I will never get tired of either and they keep me motivated, sain, relaxed, and reenergizing my battery making it easier to deal with life stresses.
11. A job, although it's only a couple of hours a week, it is both productive and makes me feel as I am needed.
12. Being jewish and the temple which I have grown in over the years and having that temple family which means more to me than anyone knows.
13. my unbelievable visual imagination which has abled me to succeed in so many areas of my life.
14. My ability to write poetry. I suck at a lot of parts of English, (spelling being #1) but I have come to accept writing poetry is not something that everyone can do and so it's a talent for me.
15. Living in the town which I do and living so close to Boston.
16. My laptop and all the assistive technology that was handed to me or which I have purchased over the years.
17. my xm radio which even after having it for 4 years, i still tell my mom "have I ever told you that I love my xm?" which out it, I wouldn't have been able to listen to more sporting events-baseball games than should be aloud in a life time and the music channels with no commercials and non-stop music which I know every song.
18. my bed. This bed which I have had since I left my cribs. I have had it now for 29.5 years and it is still good as new.

in a short 11 year spand, my house was shaken up by 3 fluds which the 3rd one took away most of my childhood including hundreds of thousands of baseball cards. Do to that horible experience that I had to deal with, I have learn to appreciate how much a dollar is worth. It may have also made me more of a cheep Jew but that's alright with me.


I am thankful for bloop. Giving me a place to write down my thoughts, feelings, experiences, and poems while meeting some amazing people and learning about their lives and learning things from them.

I thank you for reading this entry.
I hope you have a happy, healthy and thankful turkey day.
