November is a month of Giving Thanks. This theme comes from
the traditional celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday that occurs on the 4
th
Thursday of November. On this day, family and friends gather together to give
thanks for what they have while also enjoying a special meal. Although this holiday
is set on one day out the year, I believe that we should all give thanks every
day. It is important for us to always appreciate our blessings and display
gratitude for the things that we have and have accomplished. This allows us to
focus less on the things our lives lack, and more on the abundance that we sometimes
overlook. Giving thanks and being appreciative can lead to a happier life, stronger
relationships, and more blessings from God that we aren’t always able to
imagine.
I decided to make a list of 10 things that I am grateful for
like I remember doing in elementary school. I am grateful for: 1. My family 2. My boyfriend 3. My
friends 4.The opportunity to attend
nursing school 5. My apartment 6. My car
7. My strong mind & character
8. My dogs 9. My blog 10. My health
These are just a few of my many blessings. I would love to
hear about what you are thankful for as well as any other comments.
Love,
-Dikira
