I want to talk about "Thanksgivings Day".
"Ye do these things with thanksgiving, with cheerful hearts and countenances, not with much laughter, for this is sin, but with a glad heart and a cheerful countenance (D&C 59: 15).
"If thou art merry, praise the Lord with singing, with music, with dancing, and with a prayer of praise and thanksgiving (D&C 136: 28). We can singing, with music, with dancing, and with prayer of praise and thanksgiving. We can have a joyful with spirit of thanksgiving.
What we thankful for?
I'm thankful for the wonderful blessings that are outs and for the tremendous opportunities I have. I thankful to our parents, family, friends, and teachers.
I'm thank our Heavenly Father for His goodness to us by acknowledging His hand in all things, thanking Him for all that He gives us, keeping His commandments, and serving others. I especially thank Him for His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, for the Savior's great example, for His teachings, for His outreaching hand to lift and help, for His Infinite Atonement.
I'm thank Him for my friends and my family. Let a spirit of thanksgiving guide and bless your days and nights. Work at being grateful. You will find that it yields wonderful results. :)
In name in the Jesus Christ, Amen.

Bob, it's really nice to see what you are thankful for. It made me think about what I am thankful for as well. Sometimes I have times where I feel like everything is wrong, but when I saw your post, it reminded me that when we are thankful for our blessings, life isn't as difficult.
Thanks!
