...my family, my friends, and the many good fortunes and blessings that have been bestowed on me.After a week in which an acquaintance was killed by a drunk driver (37 with two young children), and a member of our church committing suicide (five children), I am thankful I have come to appreciate every day as gift from God.I am thankful for my children, and the joy they have brought to my life. I am thankful for my wife. Even though we've had our ups and downs over the past 25 years, I'd do it all over again. I'm thankful that I live in a country where I can worship the God of my choice, put the "F" word in a song (I don't, but could if I wanted to), eat at the restaurant of my choice, and come and go as I please; all without fear or retribution.I'm thankful that I have been blessed with a servant's heart to help others, and through that blessing, have learned that "I" am not the most important person in my life. I am thankful God has blessed me with the passion for creating song and multimedia. I am thankful I have friends who I can count on, no matter what.I am thankful that I have Christ in my life, and that He has taught me not to judge others who believe differently than I do, live differently than I do, or think differently than I do.What are you thankful for....?Blessings,

Susie - the most beautiful, understanding, smart and talented woman I will ever LOVE. Family - Mom & Dad , nine insane siblings and their spouses . Forty three nieces and nephews and their pets. I Love 'em all ! Friends - Who visit in my kitchen or hang with me in cyberspace . With a special thanks to steve à gilbert... for doing his best to encourage and leave me in much better condition than he finds them, as painful as it can be - I sincerely appreciate the effort . ( ... and I will update this paragraph until he finds an "emoticon" that gives hugs ) Finally... The Almight Three: My Father, his Son and the Holy Spirit.

I'm thankful for family, friends, my wonderful hubby and the gift of music. Couldn't ask for anything more. The man upstairs does indeed provide me with solace....I know he'll help others in their time of need.
