So I thought I would share with my readers the things I am thankful for right now:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>I am thankful for the <strong>All-in-all<\/strong> who fills all, undergirds all, is over all and sustains all things in an All-Encompassing Compassion.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for the dream that provoked the <strong>Z-theory<\/strong> (type \u201cz-theory\u201d in my blog\u2019s search box). It has provided me with a means to understand how my Christian theology fits into the bigger picture. I am looking forward to developing and articulating it for you.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for my wife <strong>Lisa<\/strong> who never fails to dazzle me with her beauty, outer and inner. She is my best friend and my love. We\u2019ve been together for over 31 incredible years.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for my <strong>family<\/strong>. Today all 5 of us stuffed ourselves into my wife\u2019s Toyota Echo and drove through Fundy National Park. We are all adults and thoroughly love and respect one another and relish one another\u2019s company.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for <strong>my new job<\/strong>. I am teaching English as a Second Language to International students at Saint John College in the University of New Brunswick in Saint John. I can\u2019t believe how stress-less it is.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for my wonderful <strong>students<\/strong> who are a mixture of Saudi Arabians, Chinese, Japanese, Libyans, Iranians, and Bangladeshi. There are Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, Christians and Atheists and others I\u2019m not yet aware of. They are a pleasure to teach and to know.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for the bottle of 12 year old Glenfiddich <strong>single-malt scotch<\/strong> I got for my birthday, as well as the bottle of Wolf Blass Red Label Shiraz Grenache. And books, flowers, and so much more.<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for my <strong>friends<\/strong>. They love me and understand me, as I love and endeavor to understand them. And we always laugh. Laughter is good my friends!<\/li>\n<li>I am thankful for <strong>art<\/strong>. I love art in all its forms: music, painting, sculpture, dance, poetry, writing, photography\u2026 Beauty and voice combined. It fills my every day.<\/li>\n<li>I thankful for you, <strong>my readers<\/strong>. You helped me get my first book of cartoons published. You help me find my voice. I love giving, and you are so willing to receive. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Thank you! Thank you!
