This..is my 15th Thanksgiving. So, I'm gonna write 15 things I'm thankful for. Sure, there are plenty more than that..plenty! But..I somewhat like..organization.
So, let's do this..
1) I'm thankful for the love and salvation that Jesus Christ offers us. I know it sounds like 2 things..but you can't have one without the other :)
2) I'm thankful for my family immediate, extended, adopted ;) you name it.
3) I'm thankful for my friends. nerds, dorks, idiots, best ;) , worst..I'm thankful for all of 'em.
4) I'm thankful for the Bible. the only thing with complete truth.
5) I'm thankful for school. years ago..and even today people couldn't and can't be educated. and so many times i complain about having the privilege of getting an education. ouch.
6) I'm thankful for co-op. without this union of my "many mothers", my friends and i wouldn't be together that much. oh and we learn too ;)
7) I'm thankful for like the whole chapel family. it's..just great.
8) I'm thankful that I moved to North Carolina.
9) I'm thankful for music. such an amazing thing. it brings everyone together. common language :)
10) I'm thankful for my home. not my house. my home. i feel safe.
11) I'm thankful for books. reading is wonderful. so many adventures!
12) I'm thankful for this blog. somehow, I feel that writing things down..even the simplest things..is just..good.
13) I'm thankful for my brother and sister. yes, I know I already said family. but my brother and sister are different. they're the only brother and sister i'll ever have. ever.
14) I'm thankful for emotions. haha, sometimes..ok a lot of times..they carry me away, but in the right circumstances they can be pretty cool ;) hahahahaha!
15) I'm thankful for this entire year!! So many things happened for me. good..bad. I made mistakes that I learned from..I had amazing experiences that I grew from! I'm truly thankful for 2011.
Those are my 15 things. If you see this (even if it's like april of next year) write down what you're thankful for and remember..you really didn't deserve ANY of it but you have it :)
Well I for one hope you have an absolutely fabulous birthday!!!
