I’m Thankful For…

I know this is kind of an odd thing. I put this blog up so I’d have a place to rant. Rant about things I don’t like, or what’s going on. So to break the mold, I’m going a completely different direction. Here are things that I’m happy are happening and glad to have…

I’m thankful that God has given me the opportunity to go to Samford. There have been times I’ve thought, “Hey, I could’ve gone somewhere else.” Sure, it would’ve been cheaper, I might even have gotten a scholarship or two. Sure, it’s been difficult here at Samford and I’ve had trying times. But I don’t think I could imagine life without being here at Samford. All of the friends here that I never would’ve met. All of the fun times, never had. For those of you that do read this, I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to get to know each and every one of you. So many names to mention, I’m sure I could probably fill up several pages just of names. Some of you, I wish I could’ve gotten to know better. But to each and every one of you, thanks for putting up with me!

I’m thankful for the talents and interests God has provided. I don’t know what I would do without music and piano. Even if I’m not very good at it, I enjoy every bit of it. It’s such a stress reliever sometimes! I’m thankful for the interest in computers I have. It’s not often that there’s something you can do, and love to do, and make a living at it.

In closing, I’m thankful for a lot of things. In retrospect I realize I may be unsatisfied with certain situations. But I wouldn’t be where I am today without some of those things happen. I wouldn’t have the friends that I have, or know the people I know. Sure, I may not have accomplished things I might have planned, but hey, I still have a great future to look forward too!
