Thanksgiving 2010

So, not that I think today, being Thanksgiving, is any reason to be more grateful for the blessings I have in my life, but nevertheless, it is a day designated to think on them with more focus, and the easiest way for me to do that is to list them. So, here I go!

First and foremost, Jesus Christ, my lord, my savior, my everything
Family!
Friends
good roommates and a good apartment close to campus
this amazing university that I am attending
all my wonderful professors
eyes that work so that I can read and write all I want on my own
books
blogging and journaling
email
phones
skype (even though no one ever seems to be on...)
pretty much the internet in general
and my laptop, and flashdrives
the kindness and generosity of others (and God, of course ^_^)
time alone
music, pandora radio, and grooveshark
beautiful art
the creative genius of Joss Whedon and Tim Burton
farmer's markets
Alan Rickman!
trident gum
getting letters in the mail
hot showers
rain, thunderstorms
candles, and matches, fun fun matches...
colors
tea!
mugs as big as bowls
the ability to learn
Jesus Christ again (because He is the Alpha and the Omega :D)

Amen - its the little things God blesses us with that we often overlook that are the real things we are thankful for. For me, I agree with all the things you listed and of course, you are one of the most precious blessings of my life. I'm glad you had a nice Thanksgiving mine was OK but would have been better if I could have spent it for real with you rather than in just spirit and thought. Much love. gp
