State Journal reporters take to the streets for this weekly feature in which we ask for your opinions on a variety of topics — some weighty, some light.
With Thanksgiving later this week, the question posed was: Who are you most thankful for in your life and why?Â

"Probably my family. Just grateful to have them in my life. They are great people. It's nice to have people that care about you." — Cynthia Brown

"I'll be really cheezy and say my husband (Clay Morton) because when I'm having a bad day, he does everything he can to make it better." — Angie Morton

"My son. He's 8 years old, loves cars, loves his dogs. He has two dogs and a cat, so he loves his animals. He loves Christmas. Just really grateful for him. He's just a really kind, thoughtful little boy and he makes everybody that gets to spend time with him feel special." — Jennifer Gatewood, pictured with son William

"My mother, because I had a great mom. She is really patient, kind and sweet. She does everything she can to help us out." — Becky Gilles
