Giving Thanks

This seemed like a good first-real-post topic. Enjoy!

Now that it's late enough in the night to be considered thanksgiving I thought I would jot down the things I'm most thankful for...

... my amazing, loving, perfect family and everything they do for me all the time. I couldn't ask for a group of better, more loving, funny, and cool people. You're the best and I hope you know how much I love you all.

... my friends (at Babson and home and BC haha). They put up with so much shit from me (good and bad) and I love you all as well. You're the nicest, most fun, awesome friends I could ask for and I'm glad to have found all of you. I'm very lucky and know it :)

... my education. Without it I would be so lost. I'm very lucky to have a free education at one of the world's best schools. This is something I sometimes take for granted but I am very thankful that I was born into a family and society which enables me to receive an education with quality and purpose. (Babson shoutout! :p)

... my home. This is in many ways part of my family. I can barely remember living anywhere else and I would be a completely different person without it. My parents have made a beautiful home for us/me and I can't say how lucky I am to live where I do.

... my 'things.' Although a little material and stupid, I am thankful for all the 'stuff' in my life. I have a ton of it and am very lucky and grateful for that. I couldn't ask for much more and wouldn't dream of it most of the time.

Those are all the basics, although there is so much more I am thankful for right now. In general I am very grateful for my life and everything in it but these are a few things that I wanted to highlight.

Have a happy thanksgiving and enjoy the time with your family everyone!!
