Thanksgiving is coming up. This is my favorite holiday.
I can't really be sure why, but I would say it has a lot to do with food. And the fact that usually by this time I haven't seen my crazy family for a year, and by this point I'd like to share some good laughs with them.
This year its a little weird because I saw them all last week, but it wasn't really the same.
Anyways, its also different because this year I've got two Thanksgivings to go to.
This is something entirely new for me, and I'm pretty happy about it.
I've been having a really weird month (well, year) so far. I'm experiencing a lot of things I haven't before.
Good things, and some not so good things. They'll all pan out in the end though, I suppose.
It's been kind of hard, and it still kind of is, but I finally feel like it's not going to tear me apart.
That's because I've got a small handful of really really really amazing people that I know I can count on.
I used to think I had a big handful of those people, but then they slowly disappeared.
It really bothered me at first, but then I just learned to depend on myself more.
And to appreciate the ones who didn't walk away, instead of dwelling on the ones that did.
A week ago today, one of my grandmas died. She was only 56.
It made me think about how short life is, and how it could change, or end, any second.
I feel like every single second of your life matters.
And if you spend too much time being miserable about things that are out of your control,
then you will regret it all in the end. I spend way too much time being miserable about nothing.
So, I'm trying to appreciate life more. I want to make a difference, an impact.
I don't really know how to do that, but I'm going to try to find a way.
