I am thankful for....

In honor of Thanksgiving, I decided to list out a few things I am thankful for. Not only thankful for

today, or this week, but thankful for all the time-everyday.

 

one :: I am thankful for my beautiful, loving, sometimes crazy family. My parents, brother, aunts, uncles

 and cousins are a huge part of my life. We always know how to make each other laugh or cry. We

 always find ways to pick on each other (mostly it’s a gang up on one person for the day) but no matter

 what is going on in our busy lives, we always have each other. We can always round the troops and get

 together for anything. I am truly thankful for these people and I couldn’t ask for anyone better.

 

 

two :: My angel baby puppy muffin. She is my life. I am so thankful that past events in my life, events

that I couldn’t understand needed to happen for a reason or else I wouldn’t have her and wouldn't get

to spend my days snuggling with my puppy every day. She is happy no matter what her day was like and

I think we can all learn a little something from our pets. No matter how rough or tough our days are at

the end of the night, we need to be a little overly excited to see the one’s you love, even if you just saw

them this morning. Life’s too short to be upset all the time!

 

 

three :: The boy. He truly knows how to light up my life. I am so blessed to have him by my side. I am

thankful for all the moments we have together, whether it is spending our weekends running around,

going on our spontaneous adventures or seeing each other for 10 minutes after a long days work, I love

him and I am thankful to call him mine.

 

 

four :: My health. So many people take for granted being healthy, being able to stand up, to run, to see,

to feel, to breathe. As the famous saying goes, "you don’t know what you’ve got ‘till it’s gone", I am so

appreciative that I am healthy. I could always be improving this working out more BUT I am thankful

that I have the ability to know I can work out and therefore I am thankful.

 

 

five :: My job. I am thankful that I have a place to go every day to spread my wings, learn something

new and teach something new to someone else. Yes, I understand it is WORK, however, I am so

fortunate that I have a great job at such a young age when so many people do not. I am thankful I can

provide for myself, and eventually a family. I am thankful that I can lend a helping hand when disaster

strikes or a charity is standing outside the supermarket. I am thankful for my job being fun and

interesting and much more than just a job.

 

 

six :: I am thankful, that there are still so many kind hearted people in the world. Sometimes, it is so

hard to see the good all around us when there is so much evil going on - when the news only focuses on

the bad, the negative and the disasters occurring all around us. I am thankful for those who continue to

show kindness and continue to be the greater good. It is so true folks; there is still a lot of good in the

world. We just need to focus on it a little more it rather than the bad and maybe it will shine through.

Maybe it will shine brighter than the bad and the evil.

 

 

seven :: I am thankful for all of you. I started my blog as a new adventure for myself. A new beginning,

a way to express myself, meet new people and see where the blogging world can take me. I am so

thankful that in only a month I have met some pretty great people. I have learned so many interesting

things about make-up, running, eating better, new recipes, funny stories, you name it!!  I have received

love, kind words, and thoughtful notes. I never would have imagined my blog would become what it is

so far and I just want you, anyone reading, to know that I am thankful for you.

 

I could probably go on and on, but this post is getting pray-tay wordy! Be thankful, be kind and enjoy

your holiday weekend!
