I could write a hundred things here right now, but they all sound kind of whiney and complainy. So instead, I'll tell you a what I'm thankful for.

I'm thankful God doesn't always give me the things I ask for. He knows so much better than I do what I need, what I can handle, and what will turn into a curse pretty quickly. I mean, I can't be the only one who mentally spends $280 million every time I drive past the PowerBall billboard.

 And I'm thankful that even though I live sort of in the city, I still get to see pretty things every day.
