Thank you, is a common word, used in nearly everybody's vocabulary daily- well I'm from Canada so think what you will but in general we are polite people. Thank you is just a way to show how thankful we are when a person does something as simple as holding the door open when we walk into Tim Hortons for an early morning coffee to something as great as being there to respond to the car accident you are in. Either way, just saying thank you hardly seems to cut it.
I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, (again I'm in Canada, we have thanksgiving before it gets too cold) My mom is home finally, I have a school to go to even when I don't want to go, I have a grandfather and aunts and uncles and cousins, I have my father and my brother, a great sister-in-law, I have my church to go to even when it feels like God has abandoned me, and I have friends. Really what I am saying is that I am thankful for the community God has placed me in. I am thankful for the support that they all provide for me when I am in dire need of it. They are always willing to talk to me, to listen, to just sit with. Without these people I would be nowhere today, I would have nothing to be thankful for.
Just thanking you doesn't seem like much really. And I feel like I should give you all something more because words aren't enough to show you my thanks for making my life better than it should be every day.
Whether you are in the list above, or I haven't ever even met you in person before I would like to thank you as well, for reading the words I have to say.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
