November

I wrote this on Facebook already, but I'm going to write it here, because it's how I truly feel

I'm a few days late, but that's okay. As the last few days I have contemplated what I am thankful for.. my mind came on many things.  I didn't want to my post to sound generic, I really wanted to it to be genuine. Something that *I* REALLY am grateful for. Not that means its any less sincere. It's not. Of course there are things going to be said that everyone appreciates such as Family, Friends, Physical/Mental Health, Employment, etc. Thats a given and one day this month Ill expound on that, but today I want to say that today I have been touched, and what comes to mind when I think of the word Gratitude is the ability to give and to forgive. It's one of the harder things to do in life, but just like most sacrifices.. it's rewards are far greater then forgoing the alternative. Nothing makes me more brings me more Joy then when I can actually forget myself and the things that trouble me and to start thinking of others and what I can do for them instead. Its been a while since I have done that, but its a habit that I need to bring back. I am truly going to try and do better. I love you all. I really really do and if I have hurt or offended you it's my hope that I can do better to only show love and kindness. You are my friends.

Happy November !!
