8 Things To Be Thankful For Regardless Of Your Political Affiliation
Victoria S Vosler

You know what I just despise. The fact that I have anything to complain about. I have so much going for me, yet I find something to block those good things out. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving here's 8 things most of us can be thankful for (if not all, who doesn't like horses).

1. Be thankful for family.

NO MATTER HOW MUCH THEY ANNOY YOU.

2. Be thankful for friends.

Because at the end of the day they're the ones you can't wait to see the next day. Five hours apart could not separate true friends.

3. Be thankful for a home and for nourishment.

If you have a home, be thankful. I wish we all had home but let's face it, some of us don't. So the next time you open up the door and your having a bad day, be thankful you have a place to lay your head and food to eat.

4. Be thankful for laughter.

5. Be thankful for a job.

EVEN IF IT REALLY, REALLY STINKS.

6. Be thankful for the freedoms you have.

I am so incredibly thankful to live in a country where I have the free will to do whatever I want! Do I feel like riding today or sleeping in? What should I wear today? It's the little things that we over look everyday.

7. Be thankful for your health.

I hope we're all in good health. I'm so thankful I've never had a broken bone or have been put up in the hospital for too long. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't ride one day. True story.

8. Horses.

'Nough said.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
