Happy Thanksgiving
So, I realize that I appreciate holidays so much more after having to sepnd some away from my family. And even though I was here last year, I still remember what it was like to be away from most everyone and celebrating Thanksgiving alone with Manda at KFC. Fried chicken is NOT the same thing as turkey. Especially eating it in a fast food restaurant in the freezing cold wishing you were half a world away.
I know I do this every year, but it's kinda become a tradition for me. And for myself, it's an important one. I just want to take a moment to share what I am thankful for in my life at this moment.
I am thankful for my family, without them I'd be so incredibly lost. I love them all so much and I know it's been a rough year for all of us, but we managed to make it through.
I am thankful for my absolutely incredibly boyfriend. He is the reason I wake up with a smile on my face each and every day. Knowing he is there for me and that he loves me and cares for me helps me to make it through even the hardest, longest days. I honestly don't know if I will ever be able to express how important he is to me and just how much he means to me.
I am thankful for my friends, both new and old. Without you guys life would most certainly be less entertaining and a whole lot more dull. I love knowing that there's always someone there I can talk to, to lean on, to laugh with and to cry with. You guys brighten my day when I say you and I know I do't say it enough, but I really do appreciate you. I hope that I am able to be there for you whenever you need me, just as you guys are to me. Even if I can't fix the problem, even if you can't tell me the problem, I'm still always there with a smile, a hug and a shoulder to lean on.
Honestly, after getting through those three things...nothing else seems significant. I could rattle off a list of hundreds of little things I am thankful for, but none of them would really matter.
Alrigh...and now I sleep.
