Yesterday, Mr. Right came home from a month-long Antarctica expedition, and today I turn 25! This is turning out to be a great week. In light of the Thanksgiving holiday and the tradition of giving thanks, I have decided to create and present the following...
A list of the 25 things I'm grateful for on my 25th birthday:
(not in any particular order)
1. A gigantic!, quirky, and loving family
2. A wonderful,thoughtful,and considerate boyfriend
3. Funny, reliable, and trustworthy friends
4. Low-cost gym memberships, health insurance, and good health
5. A challenging and meaningful career in education
6. Freedom from credit card debt and high credit scores
7. Chocolate cake and Ben & Jerry's mint choc chip ice cream
8. Second chances, third chances, and fourth chances
9. Online shopping sites with petite clothing lines and free shipping
10. Living in the countryside where I could watch the four seasons unfold
11. Building a quiet relationship and growing in faith with my Lord
12. A supportive and welcoming church community
13. Well-stocked Asian markets that remind me of my dad's home cooking
14. Awesome students and stepson who taught me how to relax & let go of messes
15. Fun weekend road trips that remind me how good it feels to be back home
16. Twitter & social networks that connect me to family & friends everywhere
17. Rediscovering the beauty of nature through outdoor excursions
18. Enjoying the process of creativity through photography & baking
19. The act of meeting new people and enjoying pleasant conversations
20. Public libraries that let me satiate my love for books w/o breaking bank
21. Serendipitous events that continue to lead me towards my life goals
22. Warm and cozy weekends spent in pajamas and watching DVD marathons
23. The magical wonders of convenient Dunkin Donuts coffee on slow-moving days
24. Exploring the hidden treasures of my new hometown in its customs and scenery
25. Finding my direction early on,with guidance and help, allowing me to live a more centered, happy, and fulfilling life now
