We live in a time that seems to have natural and unnatural disasters happen seemingly every week. We live in fear of global terrorism. People are being killed for the simple reason of intolerance. Children are being abandoned for reasons stemming from poverty, to mental illness, to basic neglect.  With this time of unrest continually around us, we must learn to be even more Thankful of those we cherish.                                           
        
As you read through this work, you will hopefully recall events, instances, and moments in your life which may bring forth memories of a past that has helped you to become a stronger person today.
 
This work is a celebration of a journey which leads to a path of growth, strength, and the truest love one can ever find. That love being, the love of oneself.
 
With each and every worry we all have on a daily basis. When we get down because of the things we do not  have . . . this book reminds us of just how much we do have and reminds us of why we should always remain . . .  "THANKFUL."
 
 
Thankfully,
Earnest
