Thankful

You know it's been awhile since I truly wrote a long blog. It's either been a micro-blog via Twitter, or from Dailybooth. I really wished I had more time to blog because I feel like my mind tends to get crowded with thoughts and ideas. I also noticed that my writing ability tended to be a bit better when I was an avid blogger. My descriptions and sentence structure were well developed. Now it's that texting language. Damn you Twitter and microblogging with 100+ characters or less.

But that's not what I wanted to blog about tonight. The Thanksgiving holiday just recently passed. Thinking back to how this past November has been, a lot did happen this month. With work to personal, life has been nothing less of chaotic and stressful. But Thanksgiving couldn't have come at a better time when things look bleak.

But Thanksgiving is more than just one day. It's an actual mind-set. God wants us to continue giving thanks in not just the good times, but also during the tough times. We are to always remember that everyday that we live on this Earth is a blessing with God. I forgot where I got this from, but think about the food that you are eating. And then contrast that with the millions of people who are starving and struggle to find the next meal. Think about your car that you drive to work. Then parralell that with someone who doesn't even have a job. And then lastly, that old beat up or not as powerful computer that you are reading this blog on. Then think about others who do not have that same luxury. We have many things to be thankful for. It's just all about your perspective.

Remember to have a Godly perspective. That is one of the ways that we can remember to keep Him first in our lives.
