"Happiness is Two Kinds of Ice Cream"

How did my life get away from me and become so wonderful?
I don't deserve the happiness I feel.
Yet I have it.
It is mine.
And I am going to keep it!
I have had happiness before and here is what I have done with it:
- thrown it away
- taken it for granted
- gotten angry at it
- ignored it
- thought I was better than it.
A few times I have accepted it.
But today? Today is different.
Today I embrace it. I praise my happiness and the God who gave it to me!
Never again will I take the happiness given to me for granted.
Especially when I don't deserve it.
I am thankful for blessings.
I am thankful for knowledge.
I am thankful that I have the complete gospel of Jesus Christ in my life.
I am thankful for missionaries.
I am thankful for my friends.
I am thankful for my family.
I am thankful for my future family.

What are you thankful for?
