You Can Never Be Too Thankful

Posted on the 30 July 2012 by Jessicavenoy @lovelyjesscuh
Last week's Smell the Roses task was to make a list of at least 10 things that you're grateful for :)
Honestly, I thought it was going to be hard to find 10, but I could have done 20 if I didn't want my post to be a mile long. So I went ahead and stuck with 10!
But let me preface this by saying that I am incredibly blessed, and I try my hardest to remember to be thankful for everything and not take any of it for granted.
one. I screw up a lot. But I'm extremely thankful that I serve a Savior whose grace is enough to save me. Biggest thing that I'm thankful for!




two. My family, friends & boyfriend support me in every single endeavor that I take on. And believe me, I take on a lot (I thank never being able to make up my mind). I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for all for them. So thank you Toy, Granddad, Dad, Mom, Adam, Joey, Britt, Hayden, Danielle, Kelsey & everyone else for pushing me and speaking encouragement and vision into my life!

three. So glad that this beautiful beach is only an hour and a half from where I live. Such a beautiful sight to see! The perfect place to get away and collect my thoughts or just sit and soak up the sunshine :)


four. I'm thankful that this little nugget keeps me company when I'm at home. And it doesn't hurt that she gives me a good laugh every now and then either.


five. I'm so glad to have a college degree. I know that it's pretty common these days for kids my age to have them, but I still consider it a blessing for sure. Education is priceless!


six. Sometimes I just don't feel like cooking and I want to eat out. I'm thankful that I have the means to be able to do that pretty freely without having to worry about my finances.


seven. In a world full of hate, I'm glad that I have love. Love of all kinds...love that I give & love that I receive. It's really what makes life worth living. Show someone new love today...I dare you!


eight. I'm thankful that I have a passion for working out and staying fit. Leading a healthy lifestyle is important to me, and I'm really glad that I can say that!


nine. I'm thankful that I have a car that has A/C. And that gets me from point A to point B safely. This is the first car that I bought on my own so it's my baby!


ten. Last but definitely not least...I'm thankful for all of YOU! You ladies are absolutely incredible and I am immensely grateful for your friendships and support :) I mean it!

Did you make a list of what you were thankful for this week? Link up!

This week's task:
Write a letter for yourself to read in 5 years.

I've had the task as write a letter to your younger self before, but I think it would be awesome if we all handwrite ourselves a letter and seal it up for 5 years. Imagine reading it in 5 years...think of all the things that will have changed and that you will have accomplished. It's like a mini-time capsule type thing!

Enjoy your Monday lovely people :)
