  • Kahea

    My parents for loving me like they do each and everyday ! So kind and supportive no matter what ! I am thankful for my upbringing 🙂 Amen!

  • Debra

    The birch tree down the road. That allows me to leave my worries and fears there, and where the wound in its bark reminds me of woundedness leading all the way back the cross, and its healing.

  • Malag

    For me thanking goes hand in hand with gratitude. I appreciate and am grateful and now I can give thanks to the source of what I am appreciating. So today I give thanks to existence, that this body can move from the bed to stand and walk, to hold and operate this phone, to see the keyboard, hear the wood pigeon calling, to taste saliva ready for food, to smell the leather of this chair and the power to imagine a future and remember a past.

    I can thank my husband of almost 52 years. Despite the fact he has become disabled he demonstrates so much courage and ‘stickability’ and more than anything I thank God for him.

  • Mica

    I can thank my daughter, who wants to come to my son’s for my Mother’s Day brunch! And I can thank my son for making and hosting the brunch!

  • Annie

    Jesus !!!!! today and every day .

  • Jennifer L. Wyatt

    I can thank many people today. I can thank my higher power for the many blessings people and the beauty that comes my way. I can say thank you to my husband, my friends and life for constantly changing pictures people, events and that come my way. As they say in the movie, Fiddler on the Roof, To Life!

    Today, I give thanks to my father. Looking back, I realize I was fortunate to be his son. He recently turned 78 years old and I am thankful everyday he is alive and well. I am grateful I can call him daily and ask him what he was cooking. It warms my heart to have a dad who always have treated me with kindness and love. Because of him, I am inspired to be better person each day. I love you dad.

    I would like to thank the Rudolf Steiner Archive’s channel on YouTube for making over 900 recordings of Steiner’s lectures and books available by a superb reader called Dale Brunsvold. I understand that this gentleman (who I don’t know personally) began recording books to listen to in his car many years ago. It’s a monumental labour of love and I’m sure it will be a wonderful introduction for many to the work of one of my own greatest spiritual teachers. Dale Brunsvold also has h...

    Dale Brunsvold also has his own site with many recordings.

    My brother and daughter who made my mom’s 95th birthday especially nice. They are both gems. I am grateful for them both in my life.
    Happy Friday All. Be kind to yourself today. ❤️

  • slawrence

    I can thank the people who have tolerated my bad behavior in the past, my children who love me for just being their mom, my husband who overlooks my irritability. I thank myself for seeing depression for what it is and choosing to live another day, so that today I can see the beauty all around me.

  • Michele

    The ER staff at my local hospital. I went on the advice of the TeleMed doctor for having migraine almost 5 days. Everything came back ok (labs, chest xray, CT scan). I’m waiting for COVID19 home test kit results. Nurses, doctors and radiologist were very nice.

  • Kareema

    I would like to thank all the health care professionals that are trying to help every sick person in the world.

  • Javier Visionquest

    Specifically (as if I don’t thank a few hundred individuals everyday), NVCT (Northern Virginia Conservation Trust) is the rose that grows from concrete

  • Debra

    The spirit of life kindled deep inside each one of us despite this pandemic.

  • Peg

    Thank you to my daughter for her increasing daily care for me as I become less able to do for myself. I’m thankful for her enabling me to be a mother.

  • Rachel

    All those fighting for justice and who have fought for justice. Ahmaud Arbery and his family, their love and their truth are in my heart and on my mind today.
