Thanks.

I work supporting Lijit with a range of blog publishers, many who's topic includes or is specifically on the subject of faith. This a huge range from the deeply religious, through agnostic, to atheist.

I found out this year agnostic means you believe in something, but may not be sure what that something is. I am agnostic. I believe in "Thanks." And I find "Thanks" sprinkled in among many publishers, whatever their opinion or place in life. Thanks for this, publishers. I'm starting to think people who are thankful are also writers. Those grumpy negative publishers? It's an act. They are thankful, but they wont tell.

I give thanks to people and my dogs. Sometimes I say "Thanks" to no one, but I mean it. I am saying 'Thank You' to something. It's snowing outside our Lijit offices as I write this and I'm really thankful our often arid Colorado is being kissed right now by beautful, perfect, unique crystals of water today. Even if I slip in it. Thanks.

Someone I'm related to, complained they are too short, and another person I am legally related to, said "Be thankful you have legs." I watch the dad from the little people show scoot around on crutches running his family and life and being positive and I give thanks to him and his wife and the smart people who thought the world could learn something seeing them live life. Thanks.

If you have not given thanks, try it. No one needs to know even. Thanks.
