thankful I have a roof over my head and warm clothes on my body.

I am thankful to live in a country where I can practice my religion without fear and can speak my mind without fear. Even more so, I am grateful for the men and women who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice so that I may do so.

I know there is more that I can list, but I will let others have their turn. Have a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving.
