Thanksgiving

Although the stores may have you confused, Thanksgiving (not Christmas) is right around the corner! I mean don't get me wrong I'm just as excited as the next person for Christmas! Who doesn't love Christmas?!?! As I get older it's not all about the presents anymore (don't stop the giving mama and papa :) Kidding!) I find myself looking just as much forward to giving gifts and seeing all the family. Now before I get too carried away with Christmas let's focus on Thanksgiving. I happen to be a real big fan of Thanksgiving. Food, food, and more food.... you know what that means right? Any college student's dream!!! LEFTOVERS to take home!!!! No grocery shopping for days or even weeks! So what does that lead to? You can spend your money on other types of shopping like.... CHRISTMAS!! Okay okay enough about Christmas. I do look forward to spending break back home with family and friends for Thanksgiving. I have a lot to be thankful about. I'm thankful for many things (too many to list) including my family, friends, a nice house to live in while I go to college, my boyfriend right across the street (some days I'm more thankful for that than others ;) kidding again!), the capabilities to walk to school everyday, I'm thankful that I am lucky enough to be able attend school, to have a job, to be welcome back home whenever I want, to have financial help when I need it, to have a nice car to drive, to have all the luxury technology, On top of all things I think I am most thankful for the people in my life. I couldn't have asked for a better support system. So, Thank you Lord for giving me everything and everyone you have given me and thank you to everyone who has been apart of my life. 

If you haven't all the things you want,
be grateful for the things you don't have
that you wouldn't want.
