Being thankful

I have to say I have been quite anxious this past week. 

I am a person who is frequently anxious. 

I use to view it as being "freakuently". 

But now I view it as being part of who I am. 

I will probably always have anxiety attacks from time to time. 

I have had a lot this past week, but I have decided to take my life back from them. 

I may not always be able to have everything I want. 

I may not always be the best at things. I may fail at things. 

I may cry. 

People may hurt me.  

But I am awesome. 

I have awesome people in my life. 

I am blessed to be going to a great school, learning from some of the best teachers in the area, and am working towards a career I will love. 

I have a fiance who would do anything for me and is one of the biggest support systems in my life.  

I have a brother who is proud (most of the time) to call me his sister and still lets me pester him.  

I have a mom who always tries to make sure she has one of my favorite meals ready for me when I come home from school and makes sure the washer and dryer are open. 

I have a dad who gets concerned when I don't call/text/facebook for awhile and calls just to make sure I am okay and gives me pep talks when I need them most.  

I have grandparents that give hugs and support when needed.  

I have friends that always listen to me whine, cry, and have no problem picking on me.  

I have the best roomie a girl could ask for, even if she does record my horrible dancing and puts it on facebook.  

I have a step-mom that is better to me than most step-moms are. 
I have a church family that is awesome, and extends from my church to churches throughout the state and even in other states.  Everyone of them has touched my life in some way.

I have a job where they aren't just my bosses, they are my friends too.

Yeah, I may not have everything, but I am blessed to say I have a lot.

On Thanksgiving Saturday, my Grandma Eddy said it best on the way to meet my dad. "I am a millionaire because I have lots of friends and family who care about me".
