10 Things to Be Thankful for on Thanksgiving

Remember to Appreciate All that You Have This Holiday Season

K. Anderson
We all have so many things to be thankful for, yet when it comes our turn to say what it is we appreciate most, we draw a blank. Here is my attempt to remind you of 10 things to be thankful for- some or all of these may apply to you.

This Thanksgiving I am Thankful for:

1-God

Everyone in the world can be thankful this Thanksgiving that God sent his son into the world to save us. Don't let this holiday season pass you by without thanking God for all that he has done for you, and for all that he has given. Without God we would have nothing to be thankful for in the first place.

2-Family

Family is a very important thing to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Make sure that you tell each and every one of your family members just how thankful you are to have them in your life. If you have lost loved ones, it's okay to be sad, but be thankful for the time that you were able to spend with them.

3-Friends

Our friends are what get us through the good and bad times in life. This Thanksgiving remember just how awesome your friends are and how sad and lonely your life might be without them. Even if you fight with your friends every now and then, you should still be thankful to have them in your life.

4-Roommates

Good roommates are definitely something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Even if they may annoy you at times, you should be glad that you have someone to live with and enjoy being around them.

5-Boyfriend/Girlfriend

If you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, you should be thankful for them this Thanksgiving. Make sure to tell them just how much you appreciate them and love the little things that they do for you.

6-College

For those of you who are in college, be thankful that you are getting the chance to receive a college education. There are many people in the world who are not able to go to college, so Thanksgiving is a time to truly appreciate the opportunity you have been given.

7-Teachers

We should all be thankful for our teachers this Thanksgiving. They put a lot of effort into helping us learn, and we would not be the people we are today without those influential teachers that affected our lives profoundly.

8-Music

Music is a great thing to be thankful for on Thanksgiving, and this is especially true for me. I love music, and I listen to it all the time.

9-Food

Don't forget to be thankful for all of the great food that you will eat this Thanksgiving. We may take it for granted, but there are some who will not get to feast like you do, so give thanks for all you have.

10-Freedom

Please remember to be thankful for the freedom that you have this Thanksgiving. We need to be thankful for the men and women who are fighting for our freedom, and truly appreciate the gift that they have given to us.
