PostSecret

As much as I would love to attempt to make my own personal PostSecret, I don't really know how to do the visual aspect of it... Instead, I'm saying all the things I'm thankful for.  But is it bad that out of all the things I SHOULD be thankful for only one or two are things I'm actually thankful for?  Of course I'm thankful for good parents that love me, I'm glad I have a roof over my head, a place to go, friends; but there are so many things I should be thankful for.  Is it the times we live in that promote individuality and suppresion of emotions that are the reasons we're ungratful for things we take for granted everyday?  I'm glad that we live without fear of our lives for attending school, I'm thankful that when we turn on the tap that I don't have to worry about contracting a disease when I drink it, I'm greatful for believing that maybe we're not alone in this big crazy world.  I'm super glad that there are things on our planet that taste good. 
Okay, maybe my list isn't that bad but I bet Cole's list topped mine...I'll have to see when he actually starts it instead of looking at pictures of Marilyn Manson...

  1. I agree, there are only some things that I am grateful for and yet there is a bunch of stuff that I take for granted like running water, electricity and food that ennds up on my dinner table that I don't even think of being thankful for. So I don't think that you should feel bad for only having one or two things to be greatful for becuase I think many of us are in the same situation.
