Day 312 Question 312:

What are you thankful for?

Well, this question was an obvious one for the day.  I first want to say Happy Thanksgiving to all of my friends (whether they be in-person or virtual) and to all of my much loved family.  I don’t believe that we should take only one day to be thankful but it is a nice reminder once a year of all that we are blessed with.  It is nice to share what we are thankful though and remind those around us to not take the beauty of this world for granted.  I am thankful for this life and the opportunities I have been given.  I am thankful for parents that believe in me even if we aren’t always on the same page.  I am thankful for finding my strength and my voice (slowly but surely).  I am thankful for all of those men and women out there that have sacrificed their lives because they have such deep love for our country and believe wholeheartedly in freedom.  I am thankful for the friends that have been there when I really needed them (and even when I haven’t).  Honestly, I am thankful for everything in this life because it has made me learn so much.  It has allowed me to learn who I truly am but also learn the importance of giving back…even if it is just a small gesture.  Life has shown me that we need struggles in order to learn and grow and I am thankful that I have finally grown to understand what that truly means.

I am thankful for my readers and my supporters.  I say this very rarely but I have needed you to help guide me and that you have….you have shared your own experiences, truths and lives and I am beyond thankful for that.  It may only be virtual but you are all of my friends and I am thankful for your thoughts and your beauty.

I hope everyone spends this Holiday with those that they love and remember how beautiful this life really is!  HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
