Today, I'm thankful for my LIFE. I'm healthy, whole, happy. I have food and money and family and friends. I have travel opportunities and work options and optimism about the future. I have everything I need and more.
I made it to my 26th birthday on October 25th, and I'm so thankful for the beautiful kaleidoscope that is my life.
This might sound morbid, but during those special, crystallized moments when time stops for a couple of seconds and you realize exactly how amazing life really is - in those moments, I realize that I could die happy.
However, I have absolutely no intention of dying anytime soon, even though I did get all of the physical objects that I wanted for my birthday ^_^ :
Printed copy of the comic book Adam wrote for me!

A strawberry Napoleon and a Cafe Viennois *swoon* :
These were the objects I wanted (and got!) for my birthday. But I got MORE, too!:
Balloons!
Phone calls!
Fruit flowers!
Candy!

I am the luckiest girl and the world. <3
