Thankful Thought

I am very thankful that I was born and raised in the US. Not just because the US is safe and full of opportunties but because of the diversity.

Many mornings that I walk the dogs, I walk by a house where an old, tradtional, middle eastern man lives. His bedroom is in the front and it is clear that he has a morning routine which includes praying and chanting. Everytime I pass his house, I wonder about his story. What type of life has he led? What is the path that brought him here? Who does he love? What has he seen in his life? I would love to hear him talk about his life.

The diversity of my town brings richness to my life and I am thankful for that.
