What Should I Be Thankful For?

By Jim Sher

I have to admit the question: “what should I be thankful for?” did not come to my mind nor did I realize it’s importance  until I began my mission with community involvement around 13 plus years ago. I used to think that everything should come around without thinking of the important value of what or how I got them.

During Thanksgiving, we all have things to be thankful for. Some might thank God for giving them for what they have and ask for. Some might thank their parents for raising them to become the people they are today. Some might be thankful for their wealthy family and have no worries about finances. Some might be thankful for their health. The list could go on and on.

I feel that I should celebrate Thanksgiving everyday instead of just one day, the last Thursday of November. My simple logic is that If I can wake up in the morning with a good spirit and healthy body to start my day, that’s what I should be thankful for at first. Next, if I can have food on the table each day, that’s what I should be thankful for. If my community involvement mission has been accomplished at the end of the day, that’s what I should thankful for, for having that opportunity to help others. 

I know that I shouldn’t just be thankful for what my daily life is about, I should also be thankful for the people around me. As far as I’m concerned, without them,  I am nothing.

Life is too short: Being thankful is not enough in life, I should also give my love to others from the bottom of my heart, care for others with passion, help others without asking for anything in return, try to save our mother earth by reducing, reusing, recycling, and NOT littering. All these little things can make a huge difference and impact in everybody’s lives.
