Often times in life, we're so busy complaining that we forget to remember the small things that make us happy. We're so blessed and sometimes we forget just how lucky we are. Here are 12 things that everyone is definitely grateful for.

1. We have food to eat and a roof over our heads.

2. We have friends and family who love us.

3. We are free to make our own choices.

4. Weekends.

5. Our passions and interests.

Everyone feels passionate about something, whether it's just sleeping or dancing.

6. Education.

There are so many kids out there who only dream of going to school, and we are blessed with that opportunity.

7. Laughter.

8. Clean water and air.

9. Diversity.

10. Netflix because well, Netflix.

11. Failure.

Without it, we wouldn't really have success.

12. Love.

Especially right now we need more of it than ever. Take time out of your day to give someone a compliment or tell family and friends that you love them. Your words are important, and they just might make someone's day.
