Today is Thanksgiving, at least in some parts of the world. It is a little strange to be in a different country during the holiday this year. Since Thanksgiving is on a different day every year, I probably wouldn't have even thought about it if I hadn't been reminded by my friends and family in the US.
I always liked Thanksgiving. Part of the reason was because of the big turkey with stuffing and green beans and cranberry sauce and pecan pie. (My mouth is now watering.) And of course it is always nice to be surrounded by the people who are most important to you. But the reason I like it the most is because you get a chance to think about all the good things in your life.
So today I am especially thankful of what a lucky person I am. I am thankful for my loving and supportive family and friends. I am thankful I have always had the freedom to make my own choices in my adult life. Not all of my choices were good ones nor have they all worked out the way I wanted them to, but they have been mine and I am thankful for them.
I am also thankful that I am FINALLY finished posting the best of my pics from my trip to Laos. That task only took me five weeks to accomplish. Hopefully I can catch up on Sydney and Vietnam sooner than that.
Oh, and if you are reading this on my website, then I am of course have to say thanks for stopping by :)
