WEDNESDAY GRATEFUL POST

  Good Morning Everyone,

Hope everyone is having a great week so far.   Mine has been alright.    As we ALL know this is a post to remind us all ( Me included ) of all the things that we have to be grateful for today and every day of our life.    Life offers us no guarantees of anything.   We have to take things one day at a time and take them as they come to us.   Gratefulness is something that we should all feel.  Grateful for waking up from our sleep....grateful for having all our limbs on our body.....grateful for many many things that we seem to forget about.     PLEASE share with us if you will what you are grateful for today.    Today I am grateful for my computer.    I would be TOTALLY LOST without it.    I communicate with family members and friends with my computer everyday.    Also I am grateful for my Faith in a higher power and answered prayer.   Without my Faith I don't think I could get through the day.   I am grateful for my family and friends, second chances at a better life and longer life to live thanks to my WLS.   Grateful for the journey of life that I am now living.   Grateful for support groups and many other wonderful WLS activities....such as the  upcoming OH Conferences like the one Sept. 9-10 in New Orleans, La.    PLEASE share with us what you are grateful for today also.   Have a blessed day.


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

First, I'm grateful to the OH community since it has helped me to find support and perspective in this process. Second, I'm grateful that I keep trying even though some days it's harder than others. Third, I'm grateful that I have people who love me, a good job, the opportunity to go to grad school, a sweet kitty to keep me company...and many other things. I'm still struggling with my belief in a higher power but I want to believe so I'm hoping sooner or later I will. Life is good and I'm more than just my weight. I'm enough...and I'm grateful to embrace that thought and move forward in my life.
