Please tell me if there is anything that make you happy or glad. ANYTHING!

on edit: I am thankful for my father and mother. For my college, The College of Notre Dame of Maryland. For the beautiful state of Maryland. For a safe place to live. For good friends and DU.

2. Excellent idea, elshiva!!
I'm immeasurably thankful for my husband each and every day.

I'm thankful for my happy little life.

I'm thankful for friends and family who love me for exactly who I am.

I'm thankful for all of the good people accomplish despite the evil that has overtaken our society.

I'm thankful for wonderful open-minded people on DU who care enough to be here.

3. Natural beauty
No matter how depressed I get about the state of things in general, I can never feel too bad knowing that there are places like this out there for me to explore

4. My family, My Job, My Boyfriend, My Puppy.....
I am thankful to have been born in America. I am thankful to have parents who love me. I am thankful to have finally found a job i love, not mention a job that finally pays the bills. I am thankful to have finally found someone who treats me with love and respect, who doesn't try to control me or intimidate me. I am thankful to have finally found a good man! I am thankful for my new puppy Scooter, he is a black and white Shih-Tzu who loves to run and jump and have his belly rubbed.

9. There are so many many things I am grateful for.
I am grateful for having food, clothing, shelter, people to love, people who love me.

I am grateful for my two beautiful children, and grateful for the opportunity to love them and watch them grow as human beings.

I am grateful to simply be alive. Twenty years ago I was in the middle of treatment for cancer, and it was brutal, but through the brutality of it, I gained a keen appreciation for life.

I am grateful for creature comforts and warm weather.
