Today, on Thanksgiving, I give thanks for being surrounded by the people who mean the most to me in the whole world -- my partner and children, my parents and sister and brother, my sister-in-law, and my nephews -- my family. I am also thankful that, for 46 years, I have never had to cook a turkey!
It has been interesting and insightful these past 24 days trying to find the grateful where sometimes it was not readily apparent. It has been even harder trying to live each day in full awareness of all that I have to be thankful for. It has changed me. Taking a few minutes each day to really appreciate all that you have in your life will change you too.
To get my family started on their own thankfulness journeys, I asked each of them what they were thankful for today -- here are their unedited responses.
