7 Things I'm Thankful For
7 Things I'm Thankful For This Thanksgiving
1. We don't have to ask dad
We live in a country where we can travel freely. We can visit any of the states and most foreign countries without having to get permission from our government.
2. Not cheap, but doable
We live in a country where travel is affordable. We might not like the prices, but at airfare is much lower now than it was during deregulation. And we have options.
3. Planes, trains, and automobiles
When visiting family, friends, or new destinations we can fly, take a train or drive. We aren't limited in our choices.
4. No red ink
We live in a country that allows us freedom of speech. We can talk freely about anything without government reprisal.
5. Food and shelter
We have access to clean food and a roof over our heads. We don't have to worry that the water we drink is contaminated or will make us sick.
6. Staying connected
We can talk for free via Skype. We can share photos on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. We can get on the internet when flying.
7. Special price, just for you
Loyalty programs allow us to travel for free. We can earn miles and points on everything. We might have a few workarounds but if a mile or point can be earned, it will be earned. Sure, devaluations occur all the time, but at least we have the opportunity to earn and redeem.
Hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving.
What are you thankful for?
