I'm Thankful For...
November is finally here and we can all start preparing our stomachs for the inevitable. Who doesn't love a nice home-cooked meal and spending quality time with family? My family always gets together at my grandma's house for a delicious lunch. It's one of the best days of the year for our family because we all get to catch up and share another special memory together. But, Thanksgiving has a much greater purpose. It isn't just about stuffing your face and gathering together. It's supposed to be about thankfulness and taking the time to recognize how blessed you are.
What are you thankful for? Today I've decided to compile a list of things I'm thankful for. The little things and the bigger things add up to a lot of happiness. Without some of these things, I don't know if I'd be where I am today. Hopefully you'll be inspired by my list to create your own and to focus on being a lot more thankful this holiday season.
