Last night my wonderful friend Alyssa & I had a discussion about everything we're thankful for. In a weird way, i'm thankful for being thankful...it's a good feeling and definitely a feeling i lack a lot of the time. So i'm going to share my "thankful for..." list & encourage others to do the same as well here, or there... i'm sure the list will always be never ending, but it's a great way to find balance among things that come easily to appreciate, and things that don't come as easily to appreciate, and also to find beauty in the moments we take for granted. So get your thankful caps on & let's get those ideas out on paper!!
Sincerely,
Your Salami.1
