Gratitude

Thank you, God, for people other than our family, who when we meet, will greet us with a pleasantry, and for those few who give us love regardless of our foibles. For each dear friend on whom I can depend, I give gratitude. For Deb's contest: give thanks

Nicely stated. Without our extended family (friends) our lives would be half empty.

When we aspire to be like Jesus. In our hearts, we know he sees us. For when we're kind to everyone. We'll go to heaven when we're done.
