Life is too short to be anything but honest and loving. I learned that again today. Holding grudges and anger is useless in world like the one we live in. Every moment is much to precious to be wasted holding on to sadness and despair. Take your time. Remind those people you love why you love them, and remind yourself why you have every reason to be thankful for today, because tomorrow might bring a different story.

Today, I am thankful because I am alive. I am thankful that my family is all healthy, and safe. I am thankful for my friends who are honest and truly care for me.

Today, I am thankful.

Day is done, gone the sun,

From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;

All is well, safely rest, 

God is nigh.
