On this very special Thanksgiving Blog, I want to tell you the
thing I am most thankful for-you (because you’re full of awesome sauce and don’t
you forget it) … and everyone else who has ever interacted with me. You are all important because as I’ve heard “people
come into and go out of your lives for a reason; some don’t stay long enough
some stay longer than we’d like.” I
think it’s part of the “everything happens for a reason” gambit.
You have come into my life for a specific purpose… I’m hoping
it’s a good one. Maybe you called my
work and got to talk to me and maybe I fixed your problem and brightened your
day with my cheerful attitude and quick laugh.
Maybe that conversation I had with you lightened my spirit and reminded
me that not everyone is going to yell at me and I can stay at that job a little
longer. Maybe it was the other kind of
call… where you immediately start with aggressiveness and name calling (A
little tip, consider it a side benni…if you are a bitch to customer service you
are not going to get what you want.)
Maybe you’re my sister-who has to stay in my life forever-
she called earlier to see if we could get together tomorrow… she was bummed
that she had to work today and I completely understand that. Her family, my Mom and I will meet up to grab
some food and maybe shop.
You could be the friend I fell out of touch with-I can be
really bad about that or the person I decided I didn’t want in my life
anymore. You could be the manager who fired
me. You might be the person I want back
in my life-watch out, I’m coming for you.
The person I am most thankful for is my Mom… No matter how
much I get irritated or annoyed with her; I love her bunches. She puts up with my moods and bitchiness and
she let me move home bringing all my baggage (emotional and literal.)
Today, I am thankful I have a place to live, a job and hope
for the future. And I am thankful for
you-Thank you to all the people who have come, stayed a while and left or are
still here. I am me because of you and I
wouldn’t want it any other way. I hope
you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
