Happy Turkey Day

Happy Turkey Day, everyone!

There's a lot to be thankful for... I'm thankful for being alive, healthy, loved, and sheltered. I am thankful for my parents, who are far away, yet are safe and enjoying their first few months of retirement together . I am thankful that family, friends, and my significant other fulfill a part of my life that help shaped how I talk, function, act, live. I am thankful I have my grandma and my nephew who whisper my prayers into God's busy ears in Heaven -- I'm thankful I have them to talk to 24/7. I'm thankful for hearing my alarm in the morning, rush hour, and stress b/c it just means I have work. I'm thankful for all the junk my mom leaves behind b/c I know it makes her happy and at least I have a mom who collects everything under the sun. I'm thankful for my annoying ability to be the spotless "Monica Geller" (from Friends) b/c that means I've learned well from my Dad. I'm thankful for complaining about the 2 lbs. I want to lose b/c that just means I eat well everyday. I'm thankful that my knee hurts b/c that means I was able to do all the jogging and activities that wear my body down. I'm thankful for any regrets I have b/c that means I'm able to have the confidence to move on and learn from it. I'm thankful for all my blessings...
