Give Thanks Always





Skirt/H&M/ Top/Fred Meyer. Cardigan/Target. Shoes/Payless

Hello everyone,

So yes, I have been absent for three weeks, and yes, I also might have taken these pictures during Thanksgiving and not posted them, but the reason for this is definitely not because I've been utterly lazy and too tired. 

Oops.

My life pretty much consists of homework and sleep. When I'm not sleeping, I'm doing homework, and when I'm not doing homework, I just want to sleep. Fortunately, Christmas break is near and I just can't wait! It'll be nice to get a little time to just stop, breath, and enjoy this beautiful holiday season. Speaking of holidays, did you all have a good Thanksgiving?

Ever since I've been a little girl, Thanksgiving has been my favorite holiday. The food, family and friends visiting, and a time to stop and remember all we have to be thankful for is so memorable. Yet, shouldn't I be remembering that more than just once every 365 days? The Lord has blessed me with so much, but I only ever become thankful once a year! We live in such a self-centered, all about me world, and often forget to stop and give thanks for what we have.

Thanks to your family for their love.
Thanks to your friends for always being there.
Thanks for the food and water the sustain you.
Thanks for warm shelter.
Thanks for clothes that cover you.
Thanks for the little things, and the big things.
Thanks for everything.

Throughout this holiday season, remember to always be thankful for every one and every thing you have. Don't just wait once a year, but every day of every year.

Have a wonderful day,

Elizabeth

  2. Thanksgiving sounds like such an amazing holiday, but we don't celebrate it here. Although, if we did, I'm sure it would be my favourite holiday too, because giving thanks is something to be thankful for.
