It is close to Thanksgiving. It is hard to believe. We are about to embark on the holiday season and all that it brings with it. On Facebook, so many people are posting what it is that they are thankful for. It seems cliché, yes. However, it is apropos. So, I would like for you to take part in this ritual.
For your post this week, please make a list of the following things you are thankful for:
1. A person and why.
2. A material possession and why?
3. A place and why?
4. A piece of advice and why?
5. A moment of learning and why?
I will go first:
1. I am thankful for my two daughters. They remind me everyday of the person I want to be, should be, and the person I will be.
2. I am thankful for my iPad. I love having reading material forever at my fingertips.
3. I am thankful for my home. It is a place built with my husband, for our daughters and our new puppy. It is a safe haven, a place where sweatpants and a hoodie are always acceptable.
4. I am thankful for the advice my dad gave me when I was younger. He always told me that when you go into a fight never take something you wouldn't want used on you. It is appropriate in so many ways. I think about this when I engage in debates, when I face adversity and when I need to remember my human side.
5. I am thankful for learning how to cook. I worked in a kitchen with a woman named Bev who taught me so much about working with food and flavors. She taught me to not be afraid and to try any recipe that I wanted. I love to experiment with food and new recipes thanks to working in
restaurants during college.

5) I am thankful for learning how to bake. I enjoy making desserts for my family, friends, and for church dinners (less unfortunate). My grandma and aunt have always made cookies, pies, cakes, etc. with me and I have learned the skills in order to create them myself. When I’m baking I just enjoy the moment and go back to my childhood.

5. I am thankful for learning how to take care of children through babysitting. This knowledge will help me pursue my dream of being a pediatric nurse.
1. I am thankful for my family as a whole, they help me through a variety of things and help guide me through my choices

4. I am thankful for the advice that my late grandma told me, "Never take things for granted, always treat what and who you have as if you will never see those again." I am thankful for this because it is true, always be appreciative of the things you have

5) I am thankful for learning about life. I think it's important to know what you want to do in the future and how to pursue it. Everything people talk about life is always negative, they never realize the positives that life has to offer and I think me learning that as an individual opened my eyes to a lot of opportunities.

I'm thankful for my dad. For every butt-whuppin (Verbal and not-so-verbal) I had to get to understand how the path to manhood really works, for the lessons buried in simple drives down to the store, for the stupid laughs and the quiet reassurance that it'll get better, not because the world works that way, but if you work at it.
I'm thankful for my telescope. Almost every night the past two weeks I've gone out and stared at Comet ISON as it moves across the sky, and for years I've stared down a little plastic tube to planets and stars and constellations and the moon when it lit up the sky. I'm thankful for the humility that comes from it, from knowing my place in the cosmos.
I'm thankful for my couch, where I can have my arm fall asleep just about the same time that she does, so I don't dare wake her up and can watch her instead of the dinky indy film she wanted to watch.
I'm thankful for the advice of my father, to find a girl that's smarter than me and to just listen to her, so that i'd never be bored.
I'm thankful for the moment of learning where I understood that all the atoms in the universe past the first three were forged in stars over the last 13.72 billion years, that each speck of Carbon, of Nitrogen, Iron, Cobalt or Strontium were wrought in stellar furnaces by Nuclear Fusion. I'm thankful to have learned this because, like the telescope, it reduces the hubris of a human to know they have such commonality with everything around them. Or, as Neil Degrasse Tyson says, "We are part of this universe, we are in this universe...the universe is in us. We are all connected; to each other, biologically, to the earth, chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically."

I am thankful for my girlfriend because she is there whenever I need her and she helps me with day to day struggles that life brings me.

I’m thankful for this because to this day I still use that advice and apply it to my life now. A moment of learning I’m thankful for is when my dad taught me how to play baseball.
