My blog about Envy was one of my most popular blogs. It has even been used as inspiration by some employers. Do not get me wrong, I adore that so many of you related to this piece. I am thrilled that I got a reaction. That being said I am so sad that so many of you felt something by this piece, because it means so many of you have experienced it.

We are currently in the unforgotten month between the month of all things scary and all things candy cane covered and sparkly. You know the month that we should be thankful. Since envy was so popular, I am beginning to see why being thankful is not trending.

In a world focused on what everyone else has, it is easy to see why we overlook everything we have. In a world where everyone is placing perfectly positioned moments on social media, it easy to see lack of those moments in our lives. But, people are not going to post the hard, the misery and the imperfectness, because then they would have to admit life is not always perfect.

No one’s life is. But we all have perfect parts of our lives that we sometimes forget to be thankful for. Below is my list of things that I am sure so many of us overlook and forget to be Thankful for.

1.) I woke up this morning

2.)My dad’s voice on the other end of the phone

3.)My children are still in my home driving me insane and keeping me sane all at the same time

4.)My husband adores those children in our home as much as I do and sacrifices for them

5.)My best friend has been making me smile and having my back for decades and it’s a relationship that takes decades to build

6.)Friends that share rejoice in my success and help me through my failures

7.)People that love me unconditionally

8.)A huge family that comes with all kinds of experiences
