What to be thankful for.

I have so many things to be thankful for, yet sometimes I forget. Bad days, inconveniences and tough situations make it easy to brush off the things we should be thankful for. So I am going to make a list of things I am thankful for (of course I couldn’t possibly name everything because we would be here all day).

  • The roof over my head

  • Clean/running water

  • My warm blankets!

  • Food in my fridge

  • Clean clothes and shoes

  • A loving family

  • Caring, devoted friends

  • My (mostly) behaved dog

  • My loving boyfriend who usually supports my hopes and dreams (apparently, having 30 dogs and a pet moose isn’t an option)

  • Fresh air

  • The ability to live freely and peacefully

  • Being healthy

  • Learning new skills

  • The cute little grunting noise piglets make

  • The beauty of changing seasons

  • People who sacrifice being with their families to serve and protect others’

  • Being able to pick up the phone and talk to just about anybody

  • The fact that my dog will stay still for photos

  • My camera and gear

  • The ability and opportunities to work toward my dreams

  • Pizza

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Don’t forget to acknowledge and be thankful for all the things you have that others may not.
