Happy Thanksgiving to You

Today is Thanksgiving. It’s a time for friends and family to come together to, hopefully, enjoy each others’ company. It’s time to take a moment to think about all of the good things we have going on in our lives. It’s basically a day dedicated to the idea of gratitude. I thought I would take this time to write a few of the things I’m thankful for in my life right now.

• I’m thankful for my wife and kids who I try to be a better person for every day.
• I’m thankful for my parents who raised me to be the man I am today (better not make any jokes about that because they read this blog).
• I’m thankful for my sister, her husband, who’s my best friend, and their two awesome kids and all of the love they provide.
• I’m thankful for my in-laws and all of the support they are able to provide.
• I’m thankful to my job with the State since there are many people who struggle every day to find work.
• I’m thankful for this blog and the fact I’ve been able to remain fairly consistent over this past month (Today is my 25th post and 1 complete month of writing).
• I’m thankful for the wonderful meal we had today and the change to spend time with family.

If you haven’t already, take a few moments to think about what you are thankful for and write them down. You don’t have to keep it anywhere and you can throw it out later but take the time to think about it. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day and made some wonderful new memories with your family.
