Thankful Thursday: Thankful for Opportunities

Written on October 1st, 2009 at 7:00 am by Nikki Brown

This week, all of us interns have been challenged to participate in a blog “meme”. Since I didn’t even know what a meme was before this internship, this is brand new to me. I hope I do this right. :)

In case you don’t know, the point of a meme is to discuss a particular topic along with other bloggers who are also participating in the meme. It can add some variety to a blog and can be a fun way for blog readers to learn more about their favorite blog authors.

I have chosen to participate in the “Thankful Thursday” meme where each Thursday, we post about something we are thankful for. I frequently ask my kids and my husband what they are thankful for and it is a good reality check as we rush through our busy days. So, for our first “Thankful Thursday”, here goes…

Today, I am especially thankful for opportunities to learn and grow. I am thankful for this not only for myself but for my children as well. When people are free to make choices and pursue interests and God-given talents that are uniquely theirs, the results can be truly amazing.

How about you? What are you thankful for this Thursday?

    Hi, Nikki! I love your honesty in this post! :) I love what you're thankful for, too!

    I am thankful for my 3 F's: faith, family and friends. Without those things, I would not exist!

    Have a great weekend! I gotta go do some homework! :)
