What Are You Thankful For?

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.  It turns what we have into enough, and more.  It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion to clarity.  It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.  Gratitude makes sense of our past, bring peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.
-Melody Beattie
 
Within the past year, so much has happened, and I know that the year is not even over and who knows what the last month will hold, but there is already so much that I am incredibly grateful and thankful for!  Thankful for the strength of overcoming so many challenges and upsets, confidence to pursue a dream of going back to school, the courage to adventure to places I am unsure and unfamiliar with, and proud of the loved ones I have in friends and family that are incredibly supportive and just wonderful people to have in my life.  So incredibly thankful and blessed.

Thankful for a wonderful program in a field I love.
Thankful to be currently living in a beautiful and magical place.
Thankful for the adventures we have been able to journey on.
Thankful to have met a wonderful group of people in the Tetons!
Thankful for a wonderful family back home that I cannot wait to see so soon!
And of course, a huge extension of friends that are also called family!

Happy Thanksgiving!
Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way.

  1. Hope you will stop by and visit the Dream Team while your home. We're currently working at Coverdale. We will be honoring Jim with a plaque near the boardwalk at some point in time but doubt if it will be in December.
