I'm thankful for my great life and being surrounded by loving people and having everything I need. With my mom quitting her job, and my dad constantly being under pressure at work, we've always had to watch our spending, but I'm definitely lucky.
I feel terrible and guilty when I hear about illiterate and starving people in third-world countries who are suffering from poverty, and work extremely hard to earn some food. They also have little or no friends to support them. This Thanksgiving, I'll thank God for all the wonderful things I own and pray for other poor individuals to be helped during tough times.
