These are a few of the things I'm thankful for this year - because while I think that parts of Thanksgiving suck..it is nice to have a national holiday in which we get to be thankful. I am lucky enough to have friends who are thankful on more than just the last Thursday in November, but that's a whole other story.
Things I am thankful for 2004:
* Life's experiences
* Individual Touches
* Feeling Alive
* Intelligent Conversation
* Some of the best friends money can't buy
* The fact that my two favorite colors - pink and green - are super in right now, so that I can buy all of the stuff that doesn't sell on sale and wear it even after pink and green go out of style.
* The energy of New York
* Drive, desire and determination
* Getting "it" (finally) - and as I type this I realize that that statement is so open to interpretation
* Self Love and The Pocket Rocket
* Flannel Sheets
* Health Insurance
* Breathing and Stretching
* Larry (not that any of you know what this means, but let's just say he's my savior, the reason I don't have to move my suitcase all around New York. And no, it's not sexual)
* Anyone who has ever believed in me, and has given me the strength to believe in myself
There is so much more to be thankful for. We all have something. So today, make sure to take a second and remember something, acknowledge someone, think too much about what you've taken for granted. Because today isn't about the pilgrims and Indians, well, yeah it is, but today is also about taking the time to appreciate life. So I hope you remember to appreciate it.
Happy Thanksgiving.
