I'm sitting here at my computer blogging this.
Yes, I probably should be writing, but this is almost the same thing, right?
It's words. That counts for something, maybe...
Anyways, Happy Thanksgiving all you US readers!
I will admit, I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to make this post about. I was just browsing through pinterest looking for pretty quotes and pictures, the typical blogging fare, but I still wasn't quite sure of what I wanted to say. I didn't want to sound cliche but at the same time I knew I wanted to write along the lines of Thanksgiving.
In my browsing I stumbled across a writing prompt I had saved a while back, a challenge to write down 50 things that made you smile. Hmmm... that got me thinking. So in the spirit of that prompt here are just a few things that make me feel happy, thankful, blessed, and put a smile on my face.
1. The smell of wood smoke burning on a cold day.
2. Memories, and the fact that I have so many treasured ones.
Isn't this just so simply beautiful? It makes me wish I could've written it.
3. My Catholic Faith, through which my many blessings are realized.
4. People in my life who love me and care about me and even make me laugh!
5. Rainy days.
6. And sunny ones, too.
7. Changed plans and new beginnings.

8. And for all the tiny, countless things in this great big beautiful life that we don't always notice and don't begin to deserve yet are blessed with anyway.
And so, I bid you all a very happy thanksgiving day, and just a very happy day in general! You guys are all wonderful, the best, and I'm really glad we get to cross one another's paths the way we do. Thank you!!!
Always,
~Emma
