Gratitude

Lately there's been too much work to do and too little time to write. Thankfully, a wealth of ready-to-share wisdom has been coming my way. Here's one from someone who prefers to remain anonymous:

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the hard times,
For during those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
For they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
For it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes,
For they will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
For it means you've made a difference.
