First World Thanks

The last summer, we were introduced to a concept called "First World Problems." It is all about the crazy inconveniences and problems we have in the first world how they come along based on our luxuries, not our true problems. To get a greater picture on the concept, watch this video:

 

We love having an attitude of thanks for the most basic levels of luxury,  because when you look at it in this perspective, we are more blessed than much of the world. We are thankful for:

• Life 
• Access to clean water & the variety of food
• Shelter & warmth
• Family & friends
• A place to worship without persecution
• More changes of clothes than there are days of the week
• Health & access to great healthcare
• A great country & relative safety
• And so much more... we are blessed!! We are thankful! 

Below is our Thanks Tree. We eat took at least 5 leaves and wrote what we were thankful for. We were all thankful for different things, but top of the list was relationships. Happiness isn't real unless shared! Relationships, beyond our most basic needs of food and water, are our greatest gifts.

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!! May your "thanks" continue into each day of the year!
