Column: What I’m Thankful For In 2015
Column By TOM GARRISON
Special to the Los Alamos Daily Post
Each holiday season I compose and send to relatives and friends a “Thanksgiving Thankful List” for the preceding year.
My wife, Deb, and I enjoy our life in Utah’s red rock country and have many things for which we are thankful. I hope sharing them brings a smile and acknowledgement that even the seldom thought of can be a source of thankfulness.
This is my 2015 list:
- Deb and I are in debt to the Roman god of lists—Listus (well, I made that up). We are inveterate list makers. How can one get through a week without your “to do list?” Fairly often people

Pastor Granillo: A Holy Nation…
“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light” (1 Peter 2:9).

The lack of holiness is why many people find that their relationship with God is as volatile as the typical marriage in America today. Any couple that wants to stay together for the long haul must quickly realize that marriage is not about lust, but about intentionally maturing Read More

As I struggled to find a positive way to speak in fiction about our iffy future, I took notice of Shermer’s definition of the “moral starting point” as “the survival and flourishing of sentient beings.” (Italics Read More
