Journal Entry for September 6, 2009 Mood
Sunday, September 6, 2009

with everything that's been going on i've been feeling pretty negative but lately i've been thinking about some things i should actually be thankful for that's helping me get through everything and be a little more positive about life:

my faith and the people who encourage me to stay hopeful and have faith in God.

my amazing grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who helped me more than they will ever know.

my loyal friends who have stuck with me despite all the crap, the gossip, and have always truly been there for me no matter what. they manage to put a smile on my face on the worst of days and would do anything for me.

an ex who has surpisingly turned out to be a best friend and helps me get through everyday just with his hopeful words and advice from what he's learned from his similar problems and experiences.

my health and knowing that i still have my whole future ahead of me.

my dad- despite all of our problems and fights he's helped me be succesful and independent thanks to his support.

this week will probably be stressful with school, finding a homecoming date, friends, family problems, and all the other crap but thinking about everything i have has really helped me be more grateful for what i have in my life.

    Actuallly we must have the same karma. I've was reading "Crazy Love" and realized how petty I've been whining about all the little stuff I don't have and not being grateful for God's awesome provision. Sometimes it just takes someone to give me a swift kick in the *******. Great attitude, I am proud of you!!
