There comes a part of life, when we questioned what we don't have, when frankly, we should question what we do have. We shouldn't only think of this on Thanksgiving or whatever, but every day to be honest. The things we're lucky enough to have, and the things we're blessed enough to have. Such as clean water, although it might seem like a mini thing to be thankful for, it can be such an honor around other parts of the world to those who don't have that value. I guess I'm going to write about the things that I am truly thankful for having in this journal entry right now.
I think at the type of my list should be the people in my life: although it's not a huge list of the people that I am thankful for, since I'm not that close to some people, that list of people that do qualify I want to really thank them personally from the bottom of my heart. I'm so lucky to have so much supportive people in my life that always help me when I'm feeling down, or just need that boost of happiness again. We all have that one person we can actually count on, and frankly that's a good feeling. No other word can describe that but love Whether it's boyfriend/girlfriend wise, or just friends/ family wise; love is something we all need and without that, you're truly missing one of the little bit of joys in this short lifetime we may have.
Next, although some people may think this is shitty, but personally I don't, I'm thankful that I get the chance to have a good education. Supportive teachers, that help with any small amount of trouble that you may be having, or just even need someone to talk to there's always a teacher out there. I'm happy to say, they care so much about your future, and frankly, that's a good feeling. Knowing people out there, care what you want to be in life, and will help you exceed that lifetime goal that you may have upon yourself. Those two, are mainly the two time things I am thankful for.
Lastly I am thankful for is having shelter. Yes, shelter. I'm glad that I have a house, somewhere to sleep, and a warm place. Some people out there have none of that, and truly it's really depressing. Seeing homeless people on the streets asking for money, and even with a dime, that you may give them, their face lights up because even though you may think that is little, they think ' this person is actually helping me, even if it's a small amount, it's still help' Although some people think having a house is no biggy, but when it's pouring outside, or heavy snow, or wind, you then start to wonder: ' I'm so glad I'm not out there' but do you wonder the people that are? The people that have no place to call a " home" At times, yes, I wonder that. So, that's why when I give a homeless person a little bit of change, or a dollar, and feel like I helped out in a little way, it makes me feel greater upon myself, like I just made a difference. With that said, it really is a gift to actually have those little amounts in life that you're thankful for and truly blessed enough to have.
