This year this Thanksgiving has me a bit more grateful, someone close to me is currently in an MICU since Saturday and I will be spending sometime in the hospital with her today. She is currently on a ventilator and not breathing on her own. Watching her fight each day to just be able to live again is admirable yet life changing. It shows you the importance of today, and the relevance of one day where everyone sits down and says what they are grateful for and give thanks to God for it.
Today I want to give thanks for friends as well as family. Everything in life is a lesson and the lesson I take from this current experience is never to take anything for granted. To enjoy life to the fullest with no regrets. Choosing to look back and not forward would not do anything but keep you in reverse and I am pushing that gas down to get to the next level.
Today, you may be at the table with a huge family, full of cousins, aunts and uncles or the opposite you may have no one to sit with on this day. The one piece of advice I can give on this day is just be thankful for life, it may not be everything you dreamed of but there is someone out there that wishes they can switch places for it
