Blessed


November is truly my favorite month ever. I love everything about it. I like the way it just rolls off your tongue, I love the crisp air and the chilly nights, I love that it's a month focused on gratitude, family and food. Mostly I love the last thing because those are three things in life I am truly passionate about. I try to live my life with gratitude for all I have, my family is truly my rock and saving grace through everything, and I love food.

I have been thinking a lot about the things I'm grateful for and I started writing them down and pretty soon three pages were full. I loved it. As for today, I am grateful for the people I have around me, and in my life. People are important. Relationships are important. And I find myself often forgetting about that and I get so focused on other things that are not as important. But, I am truly surrounded by goodness and I love it.

I love my friends because they bring out the best in me. They push me to be better, and (literally) force me to have fun. I seriously am so lucky in that aspect. Also, if we have disagreements we just lay it out there and then, it's over. Which is how arguments should be if you want my opinion.

I love my family because they love me through everything. Sometimes I'm moody and most of the time my family just laughs/ makes fun of me until it subsides. But, I learn so much from them and I just absolutely love them.

So, that's my grateful list of the day. I'm sure I'll have a few more before November ends.

Loves,
