We are thankful for so many things. It is really important to always remember what you are thankful for, then when you are upset or something isn't going as planned you can quickly think back to all that you are thankful for. Some may think there isn't much to be thankful for, but if you make a list I'm sure you will quickly see there are things to be thankful for. It is hard to think of positive happy things when you are having a bad day, but from this point on we are going to try to stop what we are doing and just think about things that are working for us, even something as small as a glass of clean water to drink. The beginning of this week started off great, Sunday was Brady's birthday, but then Monday came haha. Monday felt like a complete failure. We both felt like nothing went right, but at the end of the day we started talking about how most things we let ourselves get upset about are not as important as we think they are.
Here are things we are thankful for:
• Christ's love for us
• One another
• Our humble abode
• Our jobs
• Our family
• Our friends
• Food in our bellies
• Creativity
• Music
• Plenty of clothes to wear
• Chocolate (Nicole)
• Cinnamon rolls
• Donuts (Brady)
That is just a hint of what we are thankful for. There are so many things, and many of those things we forget about because we are surrounded by them often. Let's not take things for granted. We are challenging ourselves to be thankful all year long, not just one day a year. Although we do love celebrating one day (or multiple days) a year.
What are you thankful for?
We hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Always Anchored,
Brady + Nicole
