The teenager who is not doing dishes but is watching TV; because that means he/she is at home and not on the streets.
For the taxes that I pay; because it means that I am employed.
For the mess to clean after a party; because it means that I have been surrounded by friends.
For the clothes that fit a little too snug: because it means I have enough to eat.
For my shadow that watches me work; because it means I am in the sunshine.
For a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing; because it means I have a home.
For all the complaining I hear about the government; because it means that we have freedom of speech.
For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot; because it means I am capable of walking and that I have been blessed with transportation.
For my huge heating bill; because it means I am warm.
For the lady behind me in church, who sings off key; because it means that I can hear.
For the pile of laundry and ironing; because it means I have clothes to wear.
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day; because it means I have been capable of working hard.
For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours; because it means that I am alive and finally...
For too much e-mail; because it means I have friends who are thinking of me.
Send this to someone you care about; and when you think your life is so bad, read this again:)
