Thankfulness

My grandpa, grandma and myself when I was four

With Thanksgiving just passing and Christmas quickly approaching I've been taking time to think about what I am thankful for, and I realized that I have a lot to be thankful for. To start with I am thankful for my family and friends. My family has always supported me in whatever I have chosen and they also constantly push me to be the best that I can be. I am so incredibly thankful that I was able to spend every moment that I could with both of my grandpas and my grandma before they died. I can look back on my relationship with each of them and not regret a single moment, I was able to spend so many vacations and spring breaks with them and I will forever remember each trip. My friends are always there for me no matter what, I know I can call them at any hour of the day and know that they will pick up and help me with whatever I need, and for that I will forever be thankful. I am also thankful for my amazing boyfriend, we have been together for 4 years now and I wouldn't have it any other way. We have had so many things working against us with him spending two and a half of our four years in the Marines but that just made our relationship stronger. I am thankful that I am in school still and able to afford something that so many people cannot afford. I am also thankful that I have a roof over my head, food in my fridge and a job with so many benefits. I may not like my job most of the time but its something to do while I'm in school and it keeps the bills paid.
