Opinions

I was reading some opinions logged on to websites about various topics and although I often agree with the opinion, especially when it comes to anti-Americanism, I am always dismayed at the way people feel it is okay to generalize people into unflattering categories and call them names like idiot, or to say that one is full of bull shit. ' I can't stand him', is another way of making themselves look as if they don't have enough vocabulary to put forth an opinion in a educated way. What is the difference between one doing an offensive thing and another dissing that person by calling them names. To me they seem all one in the same. Just an opinion of mine.

Today is Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for I don't know where to begin. I am very thankful for my husband and for my children. My son couldn't be with me today because he was being attentive to another family member in need, but he called me and wished me a happy day. My daughter is serving our country in an undisclosed location away from her family but I know where her heart is. I am thankful for my church and my church family. When some members found out I was having a little trouble with enough money for my trip to the trade show in Orlando, they just gave me $60.00 and sowed seed money into my business. I am indeed very grateful.

I am thankful for my awesome friends and for my home that suits our needs so well. Mostly, though, I am grateful that Jesus lives and the Holy Spirit never leaves me or forsakes me. I can always depend on direction that will not steer me wrong. And I am grateful that I live in America and even though sometimes people don't think and say things that could be said in a better way, they can still say them here.
I hope we all count our blessings on this special day.
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
