{Thankful...}

Thankful
by Josh Groban

{turn up sound}

Some days we forget to look around us
Some days we can't see the joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see

It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for

Look beyond ourselves, there's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say, I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
We're so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can't see

It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for
Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each others love

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see

It's up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more
There's so much to be thankful for
----------
I'm thankful for
HOPE.
JOY.
Believing.
Change.
Miracles.

Thanks for the extra reminder to think about things that we're thankful for. Love you background on the blog right now, I guess you must like Christmas as much as I do:)

p.s. while I was reading your blog Ryker was looking at it with me and he said "there's tinkerbell!" when he saw a picture of you :) I thought it was cute!

It so great to sit and think of what you are thankful for eh. So much. Makes me feel like the bubble is going to pop at any moment. Makes me emotional. But is also a great reminder of who we are and where we come from.
Thanks for all the awesome reminders every week!
