I figure since this week is Thanksgiving week, it would be the perfect time to blog about what I'm thankful for.
First of all, I'm thankful for my friends, both offline and online. Without you guys, I never would have made it through some of my toughest trials. God has put all of you in my life for a reason, and it shows! I know I'm stubborn, and I know some of you have had to do the "tough love" bit, but because of that, I'm learning to become a better person. Through my friends, I'm constantly being shown things about myself I didn't know before, both good and bad. I'm so thankful to have people who love me, even when I'm at my worst. I think you call that Unconditional love. You guys are the greatest, and I hope that I can be as much of a friend to you as all of you have been to me.
2nd, I'm so thankful for my family. I have also been blessed to have family who lives near me, and even the ones who don't are always just a phone call away. One of the other things I'm thankful for is my relationship with my brother and sister. Their words of wisdom have also helped me through some tough times. It is from this family that I learned how to love, because that's how it was shown to me.
I'm also thankful for the past experiences that have helped me become the person I am today. I have learned about so much of myself in the past 3 years. I know that when I love, I love hard. I give so much of myself, and sacrifice alot of things to make someone else happy, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Most likely, that's why it hits me hard when my relationships don't work. How could it not work when you are working so hard, and trying to show someone that you love them, even though you don't feel that you're getting the same love back? Through my love experiences, I can see the learning experiences in every one of them, and God has moved some obstacles out of my way, so the right person can come along, and I'm thankful for that.
I'm finally loving myself. It's about time.
Have a great Thankgiving.
