So I have been stressing this week, holidays tend to do that don’t they? Well, last night I finally got into bed around two o’clock and still couldn’t go to sleep. So as my habit, I put on my IPod and selected Josh Groban’s new Christmas CD, Noel. He makes me relax with that silky voice anytime!! 
The first song I heard was “Thankful.” This song say’s everything that I needed to hear, and because of that I wanted to share it with you. I hope it speaks to you like it did to me. Enjoy…. 
To look around us
Somedays we can’t see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.
So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can’t see.
It’s up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There’s so much to be thankful for.
Look beyond ourselves
There’s so much sorrow
It’s way too late to say
I’ll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It’s so long overdue
So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can’t see
It’s up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There’s so much to be thankful for.
Even with our differences
There is a place we’re all connected
Each of us can find each other’s light
So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can’t see
It’s up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more
There’s so much to be thankful for
