36 People I'm most thankful for

As it is thanksgiving I just wanted to reflect on where I am in life right now and take a few minutes to thank all the beautiful people that are surrounding me and that have been influential in my life. I wouldn't be who I am today without all of them and this is just a small thanks. I really tried to include most everyone, sorry this is going to be lengthy. But with 20 years under my belt I'm met a lot of people I'm thankful for who are or at least once were in my life.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
