On the occasion of this being Thanksgiving Day weekend here in Canada, I thought it’d be appropriate to write about the things I’m most thankful for in my life…
I’m thankful…
- I can walk into my kitchen, open the fridge and know I have food to eat – everyday
- that at night I get to sleep in a nice warm, comfy, soft bed and not on the street
- I have the freedom and right to do what I please as a woman and a human being
- I have a job and a career I love and want to do for the rest of my life
- I was able to have my mother in my life for 24 years – it could have been less
- that even though I could be having the shittiest day ever, I know the sun will rise in the morning and everything will be okay
- I can dance like nobody’s watching, anytime I want…
- I don’t throw a baseball like a girl
- I have opportunities that most people can only dream about
- that I can laugh at myself…(it happens often)
- for peanut butter and jam sandwiches, tomato soup, and homemade macaroni and cheese
- rain storms/snow storms and a good book
- for candlelight
- that I have hopes and dreams…even if they don’t always materialize
- that I rarely sweat the small stuff…just isn’t worth the effort
- I live in a country that has four distinct seasons – change is good
- I have a wonderful family and group of friends that support, encourage, and love me just the way I am
But most of all, I am thankful that so far in my lifetime, I’ve only had a bird shit on my head once…
I’m just saying….
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
