So I heard about this lady who has a list going of 1,000 things she is thankful for. And. I. LOVE. the idea. So, I'm starting my own list. It's not a list of things like "family.." (I mean of COURSE I'm thankful for them) but it's more specific things. I mean, it can be whatever the person who is keeping it wants, obviously but I want mine to be more in depth and serious. :)
Overtime I'll add things to my list. It'll be awesome to look at it during those times when I forget how richly I am blessed. I want to never, never forget. Feel free to join me!
