Default Re: It's Thanksgiving week, what are you thankful

This has been a difficult past few months for me. Even though I cannot find a job in my field and I received one rejection letter out of the 4 manuscripts I sent to publishers, I still consider myself a very fortunate person. I still have:

1. My family who mean everything to me. They continue to feed and shelter me until I can get on my feet and support my ambitions and decisions.

2. My health, so many people in this world who never get to experience simple things I take for granted.

3. Being alive and getting to experience new things
