It's hard for me to pin down one thing/person I am thankful for. There are so many things that have helped me be who and what I am today. So I guess you are getting a list. :)
First of all I am thankful for water. In all of my childhood awkwardness I could always find joy in swimming. Then in high school I know that swimming was one of the things that kept my suicidal thoughts at bay. I had a lot of darkness swirling through my heart and my soul and being able to swim my frustration and pain out made it better.
Now I get to work around water every day and I have to honestly say that I love my job. (Even though today I got to scoop poop for over an hour, it was poopmageddon all over again.....)
Secondly I am very thankful for my horses. They keep me humble, they keep me thoughtful, they make my heart soar, and being able to spend my free time doing what I love is more of a gift than I feel like I deserve at times. I'm sure you all know I could talk about my horses for days so I'll just show off some snazzy pictures.
Lastly I am thankful the people I've surrounded myself with. I have some of the most amazing friends and family, they are truly more of a framily. I have always been able to judge people's character pretty well, but it took me a while to realize that I don't need to have negative, or un-supportive people around me. When I am in any kind of relationship with you, friend or lover, I give all of myself and rarely ask for anything in return. It has been my downfall more times than I care to count, but I finally have weeded all the bullshitters out.
P.S. I'm thankful for all of you too! There are so many days where I doubt myself, and wonder if I belong here, or if I'm good enough to be here but you lovely people keep giving me warm fuzzies! I am so glad you are supportive of my journey!
