Be Grateful

As Thanksgiving approaches, I wanted to take a minute and express my gratitude for everything that I have: my health, my family, my friends, my job, and my adoring husband, Keith (just to name a few). 

Of course, what I'm most grateful for right now is how quickly life can change and for all the opportunities that may bring. Just a brief year ago I was in a really bad way - hating myself, being super self-destructive, mourning the death of my friend, and being constantly disappointed by dumb Crush.

Here it is a year later and I'm not only happily married, but probably the happiest I've ever been. I feel settled and secure in a way I've never been before and I am constantly amazed at everything the past year has brought to my life. Normally Thanksgiving is my least favorite holiday, but I think this year it's going to be different. Keith and I are starting our new traditions together and things can only get better, right?
