I am thankful for many things in my life. One thing that I am thankful for is my family; my parents and my siblings. Another thing that I am thankful for is the every day basic things that God has provided me; food, water, clothing, and a roof over my head. I am also very grateful for my education, because I know that not everyone has this opportunity to learn and build a successful future.

In our busy lives we tend to forget to stop and take into consideration how life would be without family and friends. On this day I am going to be giving thanks to many things that I might forget to give thanks for. These things are my friends, my family, and technology which enables us to connect with both of the previous things. My friends and family are a major part of my life and have shaped me into the person I am today. I am very thankful to have them in my life. I am also thankful for technology because without it I wouldn't have been able to keep in touch with a lot of my family and friends that don't live in the U.S. happy thanksgiving!

I'm grateful this year because I am lucky enough to be able to spend this Thanksgiving with my family and to have everyone that I cherish at my side. I'm thankful to be in good health and to be able to get up everyday is more than enough. I don't have to worry about food or shelter, so I'm grateful for my parents for providing a roof over my head and food to eat.

This has been a pretty challenging year for me, but in all honestly I am thankful for the life I have been given. This year I have truly realized how much my family means to me. We have been dealing with the impact of a disease that has decided to take control of my mothers body. I give thanks and I am sincerely thankful for my mother and the relationship I have with her as well as the fact that God has given her the strength to fight through this battle that she is facing. Not only has this disease allowed for my mom and I to grow closer, but it has also brought my family together, more than what we were. With that being said, I am also thankful for my family, as well as friends, and the support that they give. Lastly, I am thankful for all the opportunities that I have had and will have in my life, for not all people in this world have the chance to have the opportunities that most of us take for granted on a daily basis.

I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. My family has had an especially difficult last few months, but in the end we have managed to persevere through everything. I am thankful for my family and their never-ending support and care. They have given me everything I have, and I can always count on them being there for me. I am also thankful for the opportunities I have been given through school, from applying for college to just getting an education in general. I've seen so many people who must go without the schooling that I have. Finally, I am thankful for the friends who have really stuck with me this year so far. Senior year has proven to be pretty difficult, and my friends have made it a lot easier and more enjoyable.

I'm thankful for Charles Dupre for allowing us clutch opportunities to miss school and not have to make them up, also for giving us an entire week to "catch up on homework" aka catch up on binge watching shows. In addition, I'm especially thankful for my family. They have been so encouraging with my education, my future, and my job this year. I am also thankful for my past and future. The past has shaped me for who I am today and I am thankful for the lessons and challenges that have helped me mature. The future is such an exciting and anxious journey that awaits. However, I know whatever happens will bring lessons to learn and opportunities to behold. I could not have any of these without God so I must thank him as well. Also, I'm thankful for Pye. Thank you for dealing with me these past four years and letting me call you "Pye" and "Franklin" Its been a lovely opportunity and I will lowkey miss our interactions.

I am thankful for my dog Finn he is supreme. I am thankful for lots of tasty snacks that I don't eat during class. I am also thankful for chapstick because it's life saving.
This Thanksgiving, I am most grateful for my family. Even though I only get to see them twice a year, they are the people who give me motivation in life and call me once a week to check if I'm doing fine. Being away from home during most of the year makes me cherish the time I have with them much more, even though the goodbyes are always bittersweet. I'm also thankful for my close friends in America because they are my family away from home. They are the ones who give me rides, take me places, and provide me with the support that I really need in my life over here. On a less serious note, I'm thankful for Black Friday sales since they allow me to shop for new things that I'd normally feel guilty for buying at much lower prices.

Period 6
We always tend to forget the simple things in life that may not seem like much to us. I am beyond grateful for everything in my life, but being limited to only choosing three things is a difficult choice. One thing I am extremely grateful for is my family. They are always there to help me through anything and they always give me the best advice. I'm also very grateful that I'll be getting two future brothers (in-laws). Another thing I am thankful for are my friends. I couldn't ask for better friends in school and outside of school that I love so much. Lastly I'm very thankful my education. I complain about school a lot but I know my cousins in other countries would do anything to get an education here. Also, there are so many kids around the world who don't get an opportunity to study due to many reasons like financial problems, health issues, gender inequality, and more, so I'm very thankful I'm getting a good education.

Although TCU is still a maybe, I'll be happy wherever I end up going because both schools are amazing. I'm thankful for my cat who spent hours staying up with me and being a pal when I was doing college essays and applications, all of which take FOREVER to complete. I'm also thankful for TCU beating UT, and Bama beating Auburn this past Saturday and Friday. To sum it up this week has been incredibly full of blessings and only made me more excited for my future!
The thing im most thankful for would be the people in my life. I appreciate my friends and family and i can genuinely say that i would not be who i am today without them (primarily my parents).
