in a need to confess thanks

you know when youre having one of this off weeks, that everything seems like its not going its usual way. i have never been the person to worry about that since i always believe tommorow is another sunny morning. but then you wake up and its raining, then you fail your midterm that you actually studied for, then you forgot you spent all your money on cooking ingredience so you cant pay for your mocha, then you eat so much that you feel like you just did a sinful thing, and the list goes on. even though these arnt life threating situations and im just complaining but it always feels nice to complain a little right?

but restraining from the negatives i realized i need to step back and look at what im ever so thankful for, cause that's what really matters

here are some of the things im thankful for 

~charismatic gift. i have had people tell me i have this gift though never really understood what it was. i just love people, and i love to listen and help people out. even though i cant maybe relate to them or anything. or even just giving a smile to someone that needs it 

~cold weather. there is something about cold weather that makes me feel so blessed. especially where i live cold weather walking on the beach means the world to me. i love the rain and that i can just go out and dance in it whenever i please 

~classical music. to me listening to Mozart while reading or just hanging out relaxes me so much and when im having one if those off days i can just play Pandora Classical Solo Piano and i feel so much better. i will have to make my kids learn to play, unlike me quitting at like four 

~receiving letters. when people are far away receiving letters in the mail from them almost brings some of them to you, in a totally normal way. even though you can just call or text them, letters have meaning to them and you can just feel closer to them

~my loving parents. im always so thankful for them, there are just so awesome

~pinterest, needless i say more? it solves every ones problems, i honestly dont know what i would do without it, its basically my better half

~the love Christ give His children, His love fills me over mountains, every day im just so in ah in how He is love and he is my prophet priest and king. His love makes me firmly know that He is my Father is Heaven that watches over me daily

~my camera and all the lovely moments im able to capture 

~candles, yes lots of candles. the smells through my house when lit ahh so nice 

~nicolas sparks movies. i have watched the notebook and dear john this week. always gets a cry out of me 

~laughing, i love to laugh and i love to be with people who make me laugh, it is the best calorie burner you know 

  

~my older brother being able to come home for the holidays. the family doesnt feel complete until he is home, sitting watching espn

~ my fun crazy friends. always going on adventures and making each day worth wild

and there are so so so many other beautiful things i am thankful for. i think the biggest of all is that im so thankful for this life and all the pieces that fit so good together
