In the midst of this Thanksgiving holiday, I've started pondering what I'm truly thankful for. I did a youtube video search on gratitude and found this Mormon Messages video. I hope that you'll take five minutes out of your day and watch this video.
There you go. Doesn't that make you more thankful for those random things in your life? It helped me become more grateful and now I'm going to make a list of what I'm grateful for (in no particular order):
*My family
*Jesus Christ
*Prayer
*Heavenly Father
*The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
*The Book of Mormon
*Temples
*My friends
*The BBC
*Books
*Memories
*My Life
*My neighbors
*Having awesome roommates
*Old people
*Badminton and Bowling counting as a PE credit
*Movies
*Education
*A little kid giving me a hug
*The smile and laugh of a baby when they look at you
*Thanksgiving and Christmas
*When my whole family gets together for the Holidays
*Traditions
*Boys
*Music
*Musicals
*Food
*When someone random smiles and says hello
*Having someone compliment me
*Service
*Dogs
*Getting something in the mail
*Making old friendships 'new' again
*People who understand your movie/tv references
*Movie quotes that go with every day life
*Old Disney movies
*Pandora
*Pinterest
*Jane Austen
*British Accents
*cokeandpopcorn.com
I'm grateful for a lot more than these, so I'll probably keep adding to the list whenever I feel like it. I hope you have thought about what you are thankful for and that you think of one thing every day that you are grateful for :)
