Blog Post Fourteen

I was inspired by Sharnae's recent blog post to write a positive, counting-my-blessings post.

I am thankful for the friends I've made here, friends that I am able to open up to, cry to and laugh with. Friends that I am able to be weird and awkward with. Friends that accept me with all my flaws and teach me more about the world each day. I'm thankful for the friends that have left me. Friends, that most would not consider friends, that have taught me more of who I am and who I don't want to be.

I am thankful for my job. That of which stretches me to be the best I can possibly be and is giving me a foot up for the future. I'm thankful for the independence it gives me.

I am thankful for my home. Thankful I have a place to exist and feel safe. Thankful to have wonderful neighbors that are happy to lend a garden hose when I need to wash the endeering Accord.

I am thankful for my cat. My little half-blind BFF that is happy to provide me company while I trudge through mountains, upon mountains, of homework and projects.

I am thankful to be surrounded with beautiful actual mountains to climb. Mountains that surround you, and allow you to feel a world away from this concrete jungle.

I am thankful for my awesome family. Weirder than I am, but full of support.

I am thankful for days like today. Days that I can make pancakes for my friends, laugh and buy myself flowers.

Anyhow, I could continue on, but I have other homework to attend to and taxes to begin. Happy weekend everyone.
