and i usually don't make lists of things i'm thankful for. most of the time, they feel enormously cliche. but i just scrolled through the Happy Thanksgiving posts on my Facebook news feed and thought, "why not?"
non-exhaustive and in no particular order--
- free music
- friends who are willing to talk you through a problem (academic or otherwise)
- INFJconfessions.tumblr.com
- federal loans (even though i have to pay them back one day)
- God's omnipresence, omnipotence and omniscience
- black people
- teachers, whether it's your job description or not
- bass (as in music, not as in fish. although that's pretty good too i'll bet)
- choreo videos on youtube
- spoken word
- Japanese food (well, ethnic food. well, food)
- laughter
- dancehall
- means of long-distance communication
- some form of dancing ability (at the very least, having rhythm)
- Sparkpeople.com
- long hugs
- mistakes and failures (in retrospect at least)
- dubstep
- late night conversations
- going places with people you care about
- cleansing crying sessions
- smiles
from attractive strangers - blankets
- older and wiser mentors of all kinds
- post-party debriefing sessions
- reggaeton
- natural hair--this includes my current obsession with (well-kept) dreadlocks
- medical school (fun times and challenges alike)
- my senior year of college
- mental breaks
- the book of Psalms (feeling Psalm 140 right now)
- prayer warriors
- late night snacks
