The Greater the Storm, the Brighter the Rainbow: 30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 22

Today being Thanksgiving makes this post very complicated for me to write.

That would be because there are so many things I am thankful for every single day, and it's completely impossible for me to write every single one of them down. I want this day to not single out one aspect of my thankfulness, but rather to reflect the fact that I have so many things to be thankful for every single day.

It's truly unbelievable, the blessings I have received. I am so thankful to be alive and living the life I have been given, but I am also thankful to know that this life is but a mere preparation for an eternity in Heaven with Jesus Christ. As I have grown older, I have become so much more aware of the rest of the world- not only it's existence, but beyond that, the completely different worlds that all of us humans live in at this very moment.

I have become so much more aware of why things are the way they are and how they impact the way I think, behave, and dream. I am thankful that I become more educated, more understanding, more mature every single day because of my experiences. I literally don't have a single moment in my life that I shouldn't be thankful for. Sure, I've been through some unpleasant things before, but I am so thankful for that in so many different ways- they have helped me mature, they have made me more compassionate towards others, they have helped shaped my dreams for myself, they have helped me live and learn, etc.

I wouldn't change anything.

I have been so blessed in my life, and I honestly have no words to express my thankfulness for that. God has given me so much, and I know just how lucky I am for that.

I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving, I know I sure did.
