With Thanksgiving around the corner, it is important to remember what we are thankful for on a regular basis. Here are just a few things that I am grateful to have in my life:

1. Family

Where would we even be without our family? Yes, everyone has their ups and downs with their family members, but in the end, you can’t help but love them. There are numerous individuals out there who may have lost a loved one or never even had a family, yet sometimes we take it for granted when this is what we have known our whole lives. I am thankful to have people that will always have my back and love me unconditionally, no matter the circumstance.

2. Friends

I am thankful to have a great group of friends in which I genuinely enjoy hanging out with on a regular basis. It is an amazing feeling to be able to have people that you can laugh so hard that you cry with and to run to when you need it most.

3. Pets

Whether you have a dog, cat or any other animal, they always have such unconditional love. They never get angry or upset with you and continually put a smile on my face. I can’t help but be thankful for my pets.

Yes, these are just a few things, but there are many other things to be thankful for. I am grateful for everything and everyone that I have and I could not be more appreciative of the life that I live.
