Thankful

I have been working very long hours recently and have found myself unable to find the time to do anything: watch a movie, spend time with my wife, see my family, etc. All I do is work. Coming up on Thanksgiving I only took one day off and only saw my family for a little while. It was a little hard to feel thankful this year, but someone slapped me in the face so now I feel better:

• I have a secure job.
• I have a great wife and family.
• Sure I have to work long hours, but I have a 'mental', 'inside' job not a 'physical', 'outside' job where I have to work long hours.
• I have my health.
• In a few months I will have a house.
• I have everything I could ever want, and I don't deserve any of it.

Thank you.
