i am thankful for so much
even though i have lost, there are gains and things that have remained the same.
there are things i know never take for granted.
for life, for the people i get to experience it with, for the love we show one another.
for the laughs we share, whether they are meant to lift spirits
or just because we're plain ol' hilarious.
for the things i've accomplished
and the things i've acquired, not material things.
for lessons, blessings, missteps, passes.
and more then anything...
i am beyond grateful for time.
for the 23 years i had with my brother and all our endless memories together.
you see this thanksgiving, i'm not in the right frame of mind.
i can't claim to be on top of it all the time
people keep reminding me how much the holidays will be hard for my family.
and i get that, i do.
but what i can't grasp, is how fast time is moving
watching minutes turn to hours and hours to days
it makes it all too easy to realize that time waits for no man.
and i need to appreciate that, first and foremost.
must i always remind myself to stop focusing on how stressed i am
and realize how blessed i am.
certainly a work in progress, but a true statement!
i hope you enjoy the holiday with those you hold near and dear
and of course, eat til your hearts content!
thank you for being apart of this special journey with me <3
