Graditude

I find it a bit cliche to write exactly what I am thankful for on thanksgiving, but this time around I really can't help myself. I have been given so many oppurtunities in life, I have been blessed to say the least. I want to thank God, above all things and people, he has been the greatest thing in my life. I am so happy he exists and the things he has given me. I am thankful for the people that exist in my life as of right now, i don't know where I would be without them. They have been wonderful and kind. Life has been pretty tough and really, I dont know where I'd be without them. And as many doors that have closed, there have been some interesting windows open. So say the least this last year has been not at all boring.
I have had a lot of bad things happen this year and I realize all the good things in my life that are and have taken place are more clarified and exist. Maybe, a few of the bad things could be blessings in disguise.
I really enjoy just thinking about what I have. Most people are so caught up on what they don't have, or what they could have but what about what they do have? I don't believe that people actually realize everything they have is something that could easily be taken away just as easy as they forget to appreciate it. Life is tough, you don't just need a helmet, sometimes you need a freind. Don't take for granted what you have, I am begining to learn exactly what that means.
