Last Sunday, my pastor preached on what we should all be thankful for in the preparation for Thanksgiving Day, so as Thanksgiving meals all across America are being prepared, I thought I would take some time and reflect on what I am thankful for.
I am thankful that I have a relationship with GOD that helps me deal with everything. I am thankful that I have been blessed with a beautiful wife and two great kids. I am thankful that I have relatives and friends I can count on. I am thankful that I have a job that is more of a hobby than a job, although lately, it has been more job than a hobby. I am thankful for technological advancements.
Technological advancements have changed my world. I am able to write about what I am thankful for and post it for the world to see. I am able to use my iPod to listen to podcasts and audiobooks as well as watch movies.
My iPod is just one example of how technology influences my learning and life. I watched “It’s a Wonderful Life and The Family Man Nicholas Cage on it. These movies help to remind me that I have a wonderful life and should thank GOD daily for it. Through audiobooks, I learned that we all need someone to work for. As much as I enjoy my job, I still need to know that I am working for my family to keep me going day by day. Saying I work for a boss just doesn’t do it for me. Who do you work for?
I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hope that some new technological advancement is on your wish list the Christmas. Just be warned it may drastically change your life for the better.
