Counting Our Blessings

blessings

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving!

I know it’s cliche, but when is it not a good time to be thankful?

Being grateful forces us to recognize others, to enjoy the good and bad in life, and it helps us see past the mundane of the day-to-day. Being thankful literally lifts our spirits and helps push us to be better people and make a better world.

I believe in the power of thanking each other and our Creator.

Today, I’m thankful for:
  • The fact that I get to be an aunt for the first time next year
  • Having special times this week with my in-laws lounging, eating together and sharing good memories
  • Being able to count on two hands (or more) the amount of new friends that I have made in NC
  • Having found new blog friends and places for community on the interwebs
  • Seeing lives changed across the world while being a part of Firefall International
  • Being able to have a full-time job, a few freelance ones and time to still have fun
  • Celebrating another year of a beautiful marriage that blesses me daily

This is not a list to make you feel like you’re missing things or make anyone jealous. This is a list for us to all share in thankfulness for, and to inspire you to maybe even make your own list.

There is always much to be grateful for. Let’s share in each other’s joy.
