Giving Thanks?

Last week, hundreds of thousands of people gave thanks for something or the other. So did I. So did you.
It's a strange concept, if you really think about it. The fact that we have to stop and look for the things we're thankful for.
I guess it would be exhausting otherwise...
Having to go about all the time, everyday, with feelings of thankfulness. There wouldn't really be much cognitive energy for anything else right?
So today, I guess I'm thankful for the stranger things in life. The ability to stop and be thankful. The mistakes I've made.
You.
