Taken from shadawyn. Because it always helps to remember the good stuff.

I am thankful that I get bored at work,
Because that means I'm getting all my tasks done.

I am thankful that I have to get up at 5:30 for work every day,
Because they want me there and pay me for my time.

I am thankful that the walk from my bus stop to my house is uphill,
Because that means I run downhill when I'm racing to catch the bus in the mornings.

I am thankful that I worry about earning money for rent,
Because I'm paying my own way to live in a beautiful house.

I am thankful that I have to do household chores,
Because my house is worth the effort to keep it clean.

I am thankful that my house is OMGtoohot in the afternoons,
Because its heat-trapping ability is going to ROCK come winter.

I am thankful that my beliefs and opinions are challenged in ways that make me doubt,
Because that keeps me from getting complacent.

I am even thankful for the thoughtless, malicious, and infuriating challenges,
Because I learn more about what kinds of people are in the world.

I am thankful that my country's president pisses me off,
Because I'm allowed to say so.

I am thankful that I worry and doubt and stress about writing,
Because I have a passion that engages my mind and abilities enough to make me care.

I am thankful that I have no idea what book to read next,
Because I have that many good ones.

I am thankful that my parents worry and fuss over me more than necessary,
Because they care about how I'm doing.

I am thankful that I miss ratzeo liek whoa,
Because missing is proportional to loving.

I am thankful that I have no cash in my wallet,
Because the impromptu dinner date kyonkun and I had last night at Azteca is the culprit. :D~~

Now it's your turn.
