A Thankful Heart

I'm grateful for oh so many things. For houses, for homes, for friends, for family.

For water, for food, for time, and clothes.

I'm grateful for music and for school, for an education.

For beautiful nature, for my heart, for my brain, and for my body.

For the chance to taste, smell, hear, see, and touch.  For the chance to have so many different opportunities and freedoms.

I'm so grateful for helpful technology, for teachers, for shoes, and for my talents.

For my personality, for writing, for glasses,  for laughter, and for colors.

I'm so grateful for entertainment, for holidays, for breaks, for hard work.

I'm grateful for oh so many things....

 that I can't just simply list them all.

Happy Thanksgiving! :)

   

A Night by the Fire

I sit by the side and watch the flames dance.

The slightest breeze blows his breath against the trees making the leaves shiver. The night is pleasant. Peaceful. The sun goes to bed, but before she does she gives the most beautiful smile for all to stand and admire in awe. 

She falls asleep and her sister, Luna, awakes to smile her own smile. I look up and the stars accent the sky making the world seem bigger, brighter, and more beautiful.

The crickets sing their song and the mosquito's search for a little midnight snack. Time passes but no one notices. We are too busy not worrying and enjoying each other's company while listening to the fire crackle and pop. Suddenly reality hist when the lightening makes his show in the sky. The breeze blows harder making Jack Frost happier;then we hear it. The drums of thunder making his own appearance on the stage.

The fire cries as we turn off the flame. We rush inside as the sky begins to shed her tears. Inside I curl up in my bed and fall asleep listening to the lullaby of the rain. 

My Condolences and I hope this helps

I'm sorry about what has happened but maybe this might help someone or help in some way. 

In times of trouble I've always been taught to turn to Christ and the scriptures. This scripture is from the bible. 

John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
