I found this in an email newsletter I receive and thought it was appropriate:

Regardless of where you live on planet Earth, let me leave you with a list of things to think about.  This is not my list. When we’ve published it before in this space with attribution to “Anonymous,” some of my readers have attributed it to Mother (Saint) Theresa, which suits be just fine. I’m thankful I found it and have the ability to pass it along.

Be thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug, because Billy Joelit means you have enough to eat.

Be thankful for the mess you clean up after a party, because it means you have been surrounded by friends.

Be thankful for the taxes you pay, because it means you’re employed.

Be thankful that your lawn needs mowing and your windows need fixing, because it means you have a home.

Be thankful for your heating bill, because it means you are warm.

Be thankful for the laundry, because it means you have clothes to wear.

Be thankful for the space you find at the far end of the parking lot, because it means you can walk.

Be thankful for the lady who sings off key behind you in church, because it means you can hear.

Be thankful for the alarm that goes off in the early morning, because it means you are alive.
