as much as (i think) sh*t is all i'm being served these days, i'm thankful for...

1. my health, that everything functions the way it should function
2. my family - my mum as naggy as she is, is a pillar of strength in the face of trials, my brother as irritating as he is, a pillar of humour and support in the face of adversity
3. the freedom to choose what i eat
4. the freedom to choose who i love
5. the freedom to choose what i wear
6. my friends who i see a lot, and tolerate all my quirks
7. my friends who although i see little of, i know will be there when i need them
8. my friends who i don't see at all, but remember me on my birthday
9. my education, without which i would have no freedom
10. my spirit, without which i would not be the person i am today - stubborn, vivacious, quick-tempered and quicker to defend what i believe is right, thoughtful and with a strong belief in the right way to do things.
