**disclaimer** I should have added this yesterday, but it remains the same today: The order in which I list what I am thankful for is of no importance. I am equally thankful for EVERYTHING in my life - for all things combined make me, me.
Driving home from work these past few days, I have taken the more scenic routes. We're right smack in the middle of autumn and the colors are breathtaking. I've been driven to tears by the sight of some of God's work around here! The grass remains a vivid green all around, but the trees are alive in bright reds, oranges, and yellows and they surely do brighten the surrounding area beneath a gloomy, gray sky.
Today, I'm thankful for travel. Whether it's to or from work, or a trip due to work, or visiting family in Europe, or a family leisure trip... I have been BEYOND blessed to experience what I have since leaving Texas back in 2000. New Mexico, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, Diego Garcia, Israel, Nevada, Turkey, Iraq, Qatar, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Netherlands, Germany! The people I have met... the sunrises and sunsets that have taken my breath away... the mountains, the snow, the ocean, the friendships, the purpose, the mission. Thank you Lord for carrying me to each of these places in the times I have traveled there - because every experience was a-mazing!
