I had this great post all ready to go as a draft, I wanted to come home and edit it and then, well, it wasn’t there anymore. So in short…
Today I was listening to one of my favorite podcasts (New York Book Review) – and it hit me how thankful I am. I’m so thankful for the opportunity I have.
…to have my own opinion….
….to have a voice to express it…
…to have friends who share differing opinions to learn and grow from…
…to have thoughts that are mine, that no one has the power to change…
…for the freedom to change my likes and dislikes…
…for the choices to choose my own path…
…for the people around me who love me no matter how many times I change my mind…
…for my life that is mine, to live as I please…
I love the country that I live in that I have the opportunity to live without dictation, to use my agency to it’s fullest, and most of all to find beauty in the little things, no matter what they are.
But most importantly – today – I am thankful to every man and woman on our soil, the seas, or on foreign land.
For ever many and woman who wear a uniform – who protect our neighborhoods, cities, state, and country.
Thank you, for helping me keep my right to my own opinion.
