This past August, I met a young man who truly understood that gratitude is an attitude. I was volunteering at a camp for at risk kids, many of whom face poverty on a daily basis. On the third evening of camp, every camper receives a new pair of athletic shoes which are donated by a major shoe distributor.
The following morning, this young man arrived for class with a grin that extended from ear to ear. As he showed me his new shoes, he excitedly said that his mom was going to be so happy that he got a new pair of shoes. I think that he was too!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
