All successful people men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.
- Brian Tracy

 Hope everyone is having a great week.   Mine isn't so well..we lost one of our cats yesterday.    She was  hit by a car.    She disappeared from my home last friday ( I live off a 7 lane road ).  It was a sad day in my home.    We assume she went out our doggie door with one of the dogs.    I know she is in Kitty heaven today.   Enough of that.....We ALL have so much to be grateful for everyday in our lives.  Even the smallest little thing that people take for granted such as someone letting you ahead of them in line and the Walmart or someone smiling at you.   Sometimes we also have to just make ourselves be  grateful for things because life seems so bad at the moment.   But there is always something....we are so blessed and half the time don't even realize it.    Today I am grateful for all my furbabies.   Trust me...they are like my children !!!   They are spoiled rotten.   Grateful for my WLS and all the choices for WLS today.   Grateful for my life, health, husband and 3 sons.   Grateful for my support group and second chances that have been given to us through WLS.    Grateful for all the blessings in my life and all the bad things that happen too because I know that there are lessons to be learned from them all.   Grateful for you on OH and grateful for OH and all the OH Events ( there is one in NY coming up quickly ).    PLEASE share with us if you will what you are grateful for today.
Have a blessed day !!!

  Good Morning Everyone,

Hope everyone is ready for a great week.    I know I am.   We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for each day.    Seems that is one thing that we seem to take for granted is to share out gratitude with others.    Life doesn't guarantee us anything at all.    I know I ( like many others ) seem to forget sometimes to tell others and family members that I am grateful for them being in my life.   I personally have SO VERY MUCH to be grateful for.    Here are some of the things in my life that I am grateful for today.   I am grateful first for my Faith and answered prayers.    Second I am grateful for the changes that have taken place in my middle son's life through prayers and Faith.    Grateful for second chances in my life as a thinner person....my WLS, all choices for WLS available to everyone, for my family, friends, my life and health,  my 3 adult sons and my wonderful husband of almost 35 yrs.    Grateful for every good and bad thing that happens in my life.....the bad things seem to make me grow as a person and help me to become the person that I was meant to be.   Grateful for the wonderful message boards here on OH and all the wonderful people that I have met here.   PLEASE share with us what you are grateful for today.   Have a blessed week.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

I am grateful for family (including my OH family!) and friends, and for my WLS and all that I can do since having it...6 months ago already! I am grateful that just because I gain a little over the summer, I am NOT a failure and I CAN continue from today on...

Vivian, where do you get your quotes? They are all so meaningful! Thank you for the work you put into posting every day!! You are awesome!!
