			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.pattygale.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/thanksgiving-150x150.jpg" alt="thanksgiving" title="thanksgiving" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1124" />I, we, have a lot to be thankful for.  We live in a free country, where men, women and children are free to worship as they choose, free to go about as we please, free to choose our livelihood and our neighborhood.</p>
<p>I am thankful for my family, local and long-distance.  I am thankful for my amazing husband, my soul-mate, my feisty 10 year old daughter, of which I never in a million years, thought I would be so blessed.</p>
<p>Without a doubt, I am thankful for my brave sons, who serve and protect from far away, and for all of our military families who give up more than just a holiday for this country.</p>
<p>I am thankful that I never gave up my quest for a successful business.  I am thankful for every single experience that has happened along the way.  For those experiences served as my &#8216;education&#8217; and I know I&#8217;m not finished learning yet.</p>
<p>I am thankful for my good health, for without that, nothing else really matters.</p>
<p>I am thankful for the amazing mentors I have found and the friendships I have made these last 10 years, online and offline, for without you, my life would be much different.</p>
<p>I could go on with lots of little things, too, but I think most importantly, this Thanksgiving is different.  I am much more aware of what it is to be truly thankful to have the people and blessings in my life that I do.</p>
<p>What are you thankful for?</p>
