Thanksgiving and other things!

Thanksgiving was so much fun! Granted, it was definitely NOT your 'typical Thanksgiving', but the essence of Thanksgiving is that you spend it with your loved ones, right? I'm glad I had so many places to go and so many people to spend Thanksgiving with -- that is one of the top things on my list of things to be grateful for! Of course, family, health, and basic necessities are among that list. But most of all, that I know God and the sacrifice that Jesus made for all of us. Sometimes, it's hard for me to realize His grace, but I am so thankful and amazed that I am fortunate enough to be able to recognize and realize even the smallest piece of His amazing grace :)

So all I did today was be lazy...even with finals coming up, it's really difficult to focus! I'm still working on my CP outline (it's at 42 pages now, and getting longer!). Part of me didn't want to send it out because some people are extremely RUDE (I've complained about this before), and all of my friends told me that it's as simple as NOT sending it out. But then I remembered all of those awesome people who WOULD send it out...and who told me that it really helped them last time...and people that are really struggling right now...and then I realize that I shouldn't be so selfish as to give into my own negative emotions. It will still bother me, I'm sure, but I've really learned that God has been so gracious to me through all of the wonderful people in my life, so I should try to do the same to people that I know. The DOING is the hardest part, but I should try my best anyway ^_^
