Roots determine the structure of a tree…our roots do the same.

Today I had this thought, “Do I remember where I came from?” Sounds like an odd thought. I mean, who forgets that? Ironically, we actually forget where we have come from. We forget the hard work and the  struggle, and therefore, lose our attitude of thankfulness.

Our roots determine our direction, knowing where we come from gives us wings to move forward. It teaches us grace and makes us strong. So, don’t forsake roots. Let them take firm hold of the ground you walk upon. The firmer the roots, the more stable the path.

So what am I thankful for today? I am thankful that I know  where I came from.
