Have you ever just randomly paused to be thankful for something that you normally take for granted?  Like one day, you just wake up and say “holy shit, I have HANDS!  This is amazing!  I can pick stuff up, touch boobies and shake other hands.  It’s so GREAT to have hands!”

And there’s more! Do you have any idea how amazing it is that you can put stuff in your mouth and then the rest of your body just miraculously knows what to do with it?  There’s like this food factory INSIDE of you, with what I presume is a badass black guy, holding a clipboard and running the whole operation.  And he’s like “You? Yeah, protein.  You look good, go to the biceps and make DB look huge.  But you, monounsaturated fats?  You go to the poop line.  Get out of this super duper body.  The rest of you who have nowhere to go can go pee pee.”  And the whole time, I’m just CHILLING.  Like I’m doing my job, carrying on conversations and going about my day, while my insides are running like a factory because that’s just how I live!

Or what about a boner?  A boner is probably the most amazing of all.  I mean, relationships can be really confusing, especially on the emotional side of things.  But your boner is like “Don’t worry, we got this figured out - just relax.  If we like something, we’ll let you know.”  For such a hard ass, the boner is so laid back.  Have you noticed that?  Like, when he means business, he just gets after it.  He doesn’t wait it out or think things over.  He just says “Hey, I’m here if you need me.  But I’m ready to go.” 

We should all have the same work ethic as the boner.  Just accept that there’s a job that might need to be done and be ready to do it.  Don’t ask questions.

What parts of your body are YOU thankful for?
