a little thanksgiving note

I'm thankful

For my brother, my sister, my mother, my dad
For the way the sun looks beaming out from under heavy clouds, deep and gold and dim
For Netflix instant streaming
For my friends, who didn't disown me when I skipped town, but kept me as one of their own
For our trampoline: I waited over a decade for it, and it has been completely worth it
For freedom
For my God, who never turns His back on me, even when I insult Him, and second-guess Him, and flat out disbelieve Him. If I ever said the things to my friends that I say to Him, I would alienate them all. But God never takes back His grace.

Turkey is awesome, but Thanksgiving is a day of thanks, of prayer, and of peace.

Be blessed. :)
