Thanksgiving is coming, but instead of sharing yet another piece of content about counting your blessings (seriously, you’re already seeing that everywhere) I thought I’d share my own personal gratitude list. Thanksgiving 2019 is my 40th Thanksgiving, so it’s only appropriate that I share forty things I am thankful for. Some of these are the traditional things that make just about every gratitude list, and some are a little less traditional. They are, however, all things I am thankful for right this moment. The list is, by no means, exhaustive, and it’s in no particular order. I also decided not to include a reason for each. I am simply listing 40 things I’m thankful for. So, without further ado, here is my list.
