Hey everyone, I don't know how much I'll be on tomorrow, but in the case that I am not on at all, I want to to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy, be safe, have a good time and be thankful for everything good in your life. To get you started, feel free to comment on this journal with everything you are thankful for, then go back and read the post. You might be surprised at how much you have to be thankful for. I'll start:

1:I'm thankful to be able to go and be with my grandparents, aunt, uncle, cousins, my family, as well as my sister in law to be.
2: Thankful to be alive and happy.
3: Thankful to have friends that support me and love me, and the ability to do the same for them.
4: Thankful that I have a home to live in, and to be safe.
5: Thankful to be blessed with the freedom to be a christian without having my life threatened for it.
6: Thankful for the gifts God has given me, and the support he gives me as I decide where I am going to go in my life, and the peace and comfort he has given me in my past troubled times.
7: Thankful for every traveling opportunity I have been blessed with.
8: Thankful for my parents, who brought me into the world and have extravagantly taken care of me.
9: Thankful that I have been forgiven by God through Jesus Christ, so that I could believe in him, accept him, and then one day be with him in heaven when I die.
10: Thankful we have food to eat in celebration of the above things.

The 9th fact is really hitting me hard today because we found out that a woman in our church that my mom has been friends with since she was a teenager died last night. Here's a vague news article about it:[link] Her name was Deena Davis, and the reason she crashed we suspect is because she had a seizure disorder, and it had been acting up the last couple days. That's why she doesn't have a car and drives a moped. So those of us who know her think she had a seizure while driving her moped.
We visited the crash site, and her sister had already been there and started a roadside memorial. The palm tree she crashed into has a small scrape and red paint on it, while pieces of the moped are scattered all over the place.
But the thing is I'm not extremely upset about it. Seeing the crash site hit me a little, but I'm still not extremely upset because I know that she is in a better place now. She's in heaven, where she'll never have another seizure, and she doesn't need to worry about medications, jobs, relationships, and things of the like... Though I hope that there is a Disneyland in heaven, or she might have something to say to God about that. She loved Disneyland, especially the Disney princesses. It makes me wonder about heaven, though I'm sure it will be awesome.


I'm trying to figure out what colors I want to paint my nails... I need three colors, and I can't decide on which one... I have all colors but brown and grey... I'm thinking cool gemtone colors, but which ones?
