Thankful.

It's been about a month since I last wrote. In that time I've been to Las Vegas, turned 22, celebrated my birthday for a fortnight, got an iPhone, made money, lost money, loaned money, spent money, and danced like crazy. I mean, pretty much life as I know it. Right?

This was supposed to be a Thanksgiving post, but I've been sidetracked. So what is it that I'm thankful for this year? Everything.

My life.
My friends.
My family.
You. If you're reading this.

I have so much to be grateful for. I mean I continuously wake up every morning - under no power of mine. I go to work at a job that pays me well to do nothing, and allows for me to actually pursue my passion. I have an amazing friend base in the city that let's me stay here and not be completely alone on the holidays. I'm in projects I'm in love with, with some of my very best friends. And I find that when I get close to people, and let them get close to me, things are so much better. LOVE like you've never been hurt, and all that.

Thanksgiving is a forgotten holiday. (Unless you're a college student, and it's the break landmark that signals 6 weeks until Christmas.) People tend to go right from October to December. Not sure why, Thanksgiving is awesome. You get to eat all the food that's like normally not acceptable. I mean, can you eat stuffing any other time of the year? Well, I suppose you can, but do you know anyone that does? No.

So today's post is short and sweet. I hope you were properly thankful on Thanksgiving. But like Valentine's day, you needn't wait for next November to let any and everyone know just how THANKFUL you are to be alive and well. Successful. Managing. How thankful you are for the people in your life and the effects they've made. I'm thankful every day for what I have so far, and what I'll achieve in the future.

the rest is still UNwritten...
