Ohhhhhh the Lord's been good to me..

..and so I write an "I'm thankful for" list! These really aren't in order of importance, minus the number 1 & 2..

20. a "quoting" group of friends that I would fight you for

19. Israel and Palestine

18. The Derby, which brings people togetherrr

17. Massanetta & Montgomerrrrryyyyyyy (Campy camp, yay!)

16. having a car, a place to sleep, a phone to talk to family, clothes on my back, people to love and who love me back, food on the table, etc.

15. free t-shirts, even if they have sketchy metaphors on the back..this could, in a roundabout way that only I understand, be connected to number 6.

14. O.A.R. radio on Pandora, which saw me through 6 hours at the coffee shop (tied with this one, wherever on the chart it is, is Rocky Votolato's song "Makers")

13. my broken heart this week because the students (and Sarah) are gone on ASB and I couldn't
go..but I'm thankful for this because I have them in my life anyways, and if I didn't my life would be completely different..

12. the Patriot joke that only a few people are in on

11. postsecret postsecret

10. the movie pride and prejudice which grabs my heart over and over..

9. passion, in its many forms.

8. BOOKS. Big ones, little ones. Long ones, short ones. Colorful ones, picture ones. Ones about
globalization, ones about how to become a pirate.

7. professors who can tell the things i'm passionate about

6. people who challenge me to be who i truly am, whether they know it or not (or care or not, it's still appreciated)

5. honesty

4. the coupons my grandma sends in the mail, and the love note attached, which brings me to tears

3. sweet tea

2. my family and friends

1. amaaazing grace

Ok. Whew. That's enough for now. I'll stop there. But Lord knows there are sooooo many more on the list. Maybe one day I'll just write and write and write and write and write them down.......
