blessed

every night in my journal i write something i'm thankful for, and lately i've noticed a trend.. 

1. people
i'm thankful for people. 
for everyone. 
for my closest friends
for my family
for all the people in my life
every single person because i believe you can learn something from anyone
i'm thankful because i'm surrounded by the most amazing, genuine, inspiring people.
people who motivate me DAILY to become better, to make more out of my life, to follow my dreams.
people who remind me what life's really about, people who make laughter a constant in my life. 
that make coming home the highlight of my day. 
people to look up to.
i'm just thankful that the people god decided to put in my life are so magnificent. 
i wouldn't be who i am without them.
i wouldn't see life the same. 
i wouldn't live or love the way i do if it weren't for each and every person i meet
because everyone touches my life in someway 
and for that i'm thankful. 

2. beauty 
real, true, undeniable beauty:
twinkling lights, timeless pictures, sunsets, stars, flowers.  Falling leaves, colored clouds, moments of perfection in the sky when the mountains become silhouettes that look like paper cut outs, tall trees, shiny things. smiles. 

these things inspire me, in a way nothing else can, and they somehow make me want to be revolutionary. 



and for these things i'm thankful.. i feel blessed to have people and beauty in abundance in my life.  
life is too good to not be happy & forever grateful. 
xoxo

happy thanksgiving
