Happy Thanksgiving! Here are five of my favorite quotes that remind me to be thankful and appreciate the little things in life. There is so much to be grateful for.

1. “The more you thank life, the more life gives you to be thankful for.” -Unknown

If you have a positive outlook on life, like will reward you and give you even more good things to appreciate.

2. “I’m thankful for my struggle, because without it I wouldn’t have stumbled across my strength.” -Alex Elle

This has been especially true for me during my most difficult semester of college. I have faced so many struggles, but they have shown me how strong I am and how much I am able to handle.

3. “The beauty of life is in each precious moment. Stop and smell the roses!” -Unknown

Life gets busy and it is easy to forget about the little things. Stop to smell the flowers, it only takes a few minutes to appreciate the little blessings in life.

4. “The secret to having it all is knowing that you already do.” -Unknown

You can always want a bigger house, a better grade, more clothes, more friends, and so on. You are alive and you have people that love you unconditionally… in my opinion, you couldn’t ask for anything more.

5. “It is not happy people who are thankful. It is thankful people who are happy.” -Unknown

If you are thankful, you will be happy about all that you have.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along.

It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
