Happy Thanksgiving! Since today is Thanksgiving I decided that instead of doing a book review for text Thursday I would do a Thanksgiving Day post about what I have been thankful for this past year.
The first thing I have been thankful for this past year is my friends. I had a very close friend decide that they did not want to continue our friendship, and it was extremely difficult. I went from talking to them every day to not at all and it was definitely an adjustment. Without my other friends I would have been a wreck! They texted me every day and they were there for me when I needed to vent about something or needed to celebrate something. I am so glad that I have such great friends to turn to!
The next thing that I am thankful for is my family! My brother was on a trip for a couple months this year and it really helped put things in perspective on how much he plays a role in my life. It was just little things like lighting a candle or supporting my crazy cup collecting habits that made me realize how much I needed him home. I will say that it did bring my other brother and I closer though. We really began to talk more and would spend more time together. He would come shopping with me, and sometimes help control my need to spend money! Not only am I thankful for my brothers, but I am also thankful for my parents. They are so supportive of me and my education. Without them getting my degree would be so much harder and would most likely be impossible. I am so thankful that I can have a great relationship with my family and am glad I get to keep building on that relationship.
The last thing that I am going to mention is my education. I am so thankful that I am able to continue my education, and that I am able to go to college and go for a degree that interests me. Even though it is super hard at times I know that it will be worth it in the future!
Those are just a few things that I am thankful for. There have been so many people I am extremely blessed to have met. I also had a lot of experiences and changes in my life that have made my life better. This year really has been such a great year so far, and I am looking forward to the rest of it! What are some of the things you are thankful for? Let me know in the comments below!
