My Graditude List

My Good Friend & RealTruck’s V.P. of Operations has a neat story about Gratitude.  Basically, the message is how do we stay grateful for something while we have it.  Often it seems almost human nature to have a greater appreciation for something once its gone.  So, why not have that same level of appreciation now.   Certianly the first thing i can do is be aware of what i’m grateful for.

Here’s my gratitude list.  Not in any particular order… just what’s popping into my melon.

1. Family.  My Bride, Children & Mother for starters.
2. Friends
3. God (as i understand him)
4. Everything works on my person
5. My life:  job, racing, coffee with friends.
6. Having the desire to be a better me
7. RealTruck staff
8. I have a sense of service.
9. Ice cream or cookies every night before bed.
10. Getting to travel
11. My wife Shannon.  Again b/c she’s always helping me out.
12. MOM.  again because every great mom should be listed twice on something like this.
13. Our furry family- Frankie, Angle and now the homeless cat we call Lucky.
14. Aunt Karen as she is so strong fitting cancer.
15. Samantha as her smile always makes me smile.
16. Cameron b/c just wants to be loved.
