Thankful means so much more.

When being Thankful means so much more.

23

Have you ever heard the word Thankful used in a sentence? Maybe someone has used it to describe a you or someone you may know. The word Thankful to me means so much more.


Sometimes I think we forget to be Thankful. The word Thankful to many people doesn’t mean the same thing as it does to others, sometimes. You could use the word Thankful by saying “I’m so thankful for you” when talking to someone.



I have a list I could tell you of what I’m Thankful for but I won’t tell you everything. I’ll tell you the main things because they mean so much more. The things and the people that are thankful to me and I won’t take for Granted because of God I have theses things, these people.


Thanksgiving is all about being Thankful. But if we forget to be thankful during the rest of our lives and not just thanksgiving and we are really missing the big picture of the word “Thankful” and the whole idea of being Thankful. I’m lucky enough God brought two sweet boys named Will, AJ into my life who bring me joy all the time. I’m lucky enough to have a great school, support system, family,friends.


My challenge to you this Thursday is to yes remember all the reasons to be thankful but be thankful to the one above who has given you all this. Be thankful you’re around a table of loved ones. Be thankful for the food on your table, the hands who’ve prepared it. Be Thankful.


But don’t let the day go to waste without telling someone you are Thankful for them. ❤️

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
