Just because one day isn't enough to tell of all the things that I'm thankful for, I have been celebrating a whole week of Thanksgiving. But today is ACTUALLY Thanksgiving! So I had to make time to speak of one of the most important aspects of my life that I'm grateful for - Friendship. I say Friendship, not just friends, because I'm thankful for the entire idea of Friendship. The whole "institution" of friendship, if you will. Friends come and go, but no matter how long a friend sticks around, they have an impact on your life, and who you are. So today, I am thankful for friendship. I'm thankful for those friends of my past who aren't really around anymore - because they had an impact on the woman that I am today. I'm thankful for the friends who are currently in my life, because they are my support system- spiritually, physically, socially, and emotionally. I'm thankful for the friends that I know God will bless me with in the future - both new friends, and those who stuck around despite my downfalls. But most of all, I'm thankful for my BEST friend. The one who knows me better than I know myself. The one who will ALWAYS stick around, no matter where my life leads. He is always there for me when my other friends cannot be or when it seems like I am alone. Jesus Christ. He is the ULTIMATE friend, and I am extremely grateful that he thinks I am worthy enough to be called his friend.
