Life has much to be grateful for

As a Seasoned Senior I am grateful for my life.

As I look back, I’m thankful to the man who saved my life at age four.

I’m grateful for my education and the opportunities to become a productive adult.

I’m honored to have the pleasure of saving an infant from a burning house and both of us making it out alive.

I’m thankful for my wife, our family and our friends.

I’m grateful we all live in a free country where we all can choose our own path of life.

I am very grateful that the saline injection given under protest to my mother to end my life was not successful.

I am thankful to be alive and experience life and all its potentials.
