Thankful.

I had this big long Thanksgiving post planned, where I systematically listed all of the things I'm thankful for. But that would take too long, and be too sappy. I can sum everything up, my whole life, in one word:

Blessed.

I am so blessed. The past year has been a rollercoaster. Lots of happiness, lots of sadness, laughter and tears. I wouldn't change a moment. God has broken me down, and is building me back up in ways I couldn't have imagined. My friends are the strongest, sweetest, funniest, supportive, WONDERFUL people. Old and new, I cannot thank them enough for their presence in my life. My parents, my family...are beyond compare. I am, for the first time in a long time, content with my present and EXCITED for my future. The sad and lonely and anxious moments are few and far between right now, and really, only serve as reminders of how beautiful life is. The sweet couldn't taste as sweet without the sour. And life is so, so sweet.

And I couldn't be more thankful. Thank you family, thank you friends, and thank you God. I've got more than anyone should.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
