Thankful!

In the last few weeks, I've made some big changes in my life.  I haven't dyed my hair purple or anything crazy like that, but I've taken some big steps to say the least, and I'm probably not done.

More to the point....
      When it's not the month of November, I think sometimes it takes a major change in your life for you to realize just how much you have to be thankful for.  This has definitely been my case in the last week or so.
      Specifically, it's has come to my attention just how thankful I am to have some people in my life.  I know that I have told them, but sometimes I feel like it's just not enough, so I wanted to mention a few here.

• I'm thankful for my brother.  While we are polar opposites most days, and sometimes aren't the best of friends, we've always been close.  I've always heard that the older you get, the better friends you become with your sibling.  While I didn't doubt that, I sure am glad that this is coming true.  
• I'm thankful for the people that I work with.  I have worked at the same place since I was 15 years old and I've done a lot of growing up over the years, but it never ceases to amaze me how lucky I am.  Whether it's through little words of encouragement or the countless opportunities that they have put in front of me, I don't know that I will ever be able to say thank you enough.  
• I'm thankful for my family.  This may seem cliché, but it's so true.  Even for the little things like bringing me a smoothie, can simply make my day and for that I'm grateful!
• I'm thankful for those who have been so quick to jump out and ask, "What do you need?" Even when I didn't have a good answer; the saying "It's the thought that counts" really is true!
