Fortune Cookie

"Practice an attitude of gratitude."

No kidding. That's what the fortune says. It even says my lucky numbers are 2, 5, 14, 18, 23, and 50. In Chinese, Fish is Yu.

Remarkably, gratitude is a very healthy practice. It keeps us focused on the positive, helps us get along better with others and generally speaking, makes life more enjoyable.

This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for my wife and family - that we are all there for each other. I'm thankful that I can ride my motorcycle and all that entails. I'm thankful that we live in a free society and that we strive and struggle to keep it that way (not to mention the people who dedicate their lives to that end).

For what are you thankful?
