I'm Thankful

Hello Everyone!

 
We're exactly one week away from Thanksgiving!! Today I wanted to write a post about the things I'm thankful for in my life.


1. My Mom

What can I say? Except I love my mom so much!! She's  my rock and I wouldn't be the woman I am today without her love, support, and guidance.

2. My Bestfriends

I've known my first best friend since I was 16 he's awesome!! I met my other best friend in college, shes great as well! I'm glad they're in my life and I appreciate their love and support as well!

3. Life

Even though life can have its challenges, I still appreciate life in general. After all, life is what you make it.

4. The Basic Necessities

This includes food, clothes, and shelter etc. I'm very thankful for these things because sadly so many people are not fortunate to have basic necessities.

5. Health and Wellness

I may suffer from allergies all throughout the year, but I'm still thankful for my overall health.

6. My Blogger Friends, Followers, Readers, and Instagram Followers

You know I can't forget you all! I appreciate all my blogger friends, followers, and readers for stopping by my blog, reading and commenting on my posts! I also appreciate all my Instagram followers!


I try to be thankful all of the time, not just for Thanksgiving. There are so many people in the world who have it tough, so I think about that when I feel the need to complain. No one is perfect, but we should be thankful for things we do have instead of focusing on the things we don't have.


I unsure if I will post next week, but I hope you all have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

here's the link below for my first inspirational post

Are You Happy?


Side Note: I know that I've been absent from blogger and Instagram, but I plan catching up on blog reading, commenting, and responding before or by next week!



Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Although we don't celebrate Thanksgiving over here in the UK I agree that we should be thankful a lot more as we do take a lot of things for granted. With the basic necessities in particular we don't give it a second thought having food in the fridge, running water and a cosy bed to go to at night as there are many people out there who don't have that luxuries.

Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving when it comes :) xx

Thank you Ashley! I missed posting and reading blogs! I did a post like this last year too! I try to be thankful even when I feel the need to complain because some people have it really difficult. We all have our struggles, but we also have elements in our life that we should be thankful for! That would be awesome if you wrote a post like this! I hope you also have a Happy Thanksgiving!
