What are you Grateful For?

I sent out a survey on Sunday asking two questions. The first inquired whether people were doing better, the same or worse relative to last Thanksgiving. The second question asked what you have to be thankful for. I report results of the Thanksgiving survey on the show today.

I received 31 responses over the two days prior to the show and read them on the radio show today. It was a healing for me just to read the responses on the show today. When you hear the show, you will understand why.
