I am Thankful....

I can walk.

There are those who have never taken their first step.



I Am Thankful....

I can see the beauty all around me.

There are those whose world is always dark.



I Am Thankful ...

I can hear music playing.

There are those who entire life has been spent in silence.



I Am Thankful....

My heart can be broken.

There are those who are so hardened they cannot be touched.



I Am Thankful....

I can move about freely and express my beliefs.

There are those who live in constant fear.



I Am Thankful....

I have been loved.

There are those for whom no one has ever cared.



I Am Thankful....

I can work.

There are those who have to depend on others for even their most basic needs.



I Am Thankful....

For the opportunity to help others.

There are those who have not been so abundantly blessed as I.



I Am Thankful....

For the friends i have.

There are those who have not any.
