Sundays are a slow day on the blog and I have a feeling folks may be tiring of this exercise of turning the thankless parts of our lives into points of thankfulness. But I'm going to go ahead with it anyway.

Again, the idea comes from Leah's blog.

Please post your notes of thankfulness below. The first three last week were: Unfaithfulness of my husband, bitterness, and depression. To prime your pump, here are a few others:

--------------------------

Dear Alopecia -

Thank you for helping me to realize that I don't need hair to be
beautiful! Thank you for allowing God to instill in me an indentity and
beauty that I never knew I had. Thank you for not being cancer.

Rachel

---------------------------

Dear litigation,

You are teaching me how to love those who treat others unfairly; and
yes, to love those who position themselves as enemies.

May your will be done...

Kathy
