Nov. 26, 2009— -- Robin Roberts asked you what you were thankful for, and you answered.

"Good Morning America" is partnering with YouTube to give you a chance to share your thoughts about what you're grateful for this Thanksgiving.

You sent us videos from across the country and we selected several to be aired during today's show.

Some of your submissions were somber and thoughtful, while others took a lighter tone. But they all embodied the spirit of Thanksgiving.

In addition to being thankful for his family, Kevin L. of San Diego told us in his video that he was grateful for a variety of things -- including charities, his hat, "beautiful love songs and really hard-core angry songs," as well as opposable thumbs.

As one man from Lovett, Texas, shared his views, his cat refused to be ignored. So while the viewer recorded his message, the animal demanded to be petted.

"I'm thankful that God has granted me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference," he said. "I'm also very thankful to the brave men and woman of our United States Armed Forces who are serving here and abroad. God bless you all on this fine Thanksgiving Day."
