Thanks

As the Thanksgiving season rolls around once again, I've been thinking of some of the things that I'm personally thankful for.

I'm thankful to live in a country where we stand in line for a chance to buy an unneccessary video game system for $600, rather than standing in line hoping to be served a hot meal.

I'm thankful that we have the opportunity to complain that the heat is on too high, rather than freezing to death like so many do every night.

I'm thankful that I have the ability to spend my time furthering my education instead of working in a sweat shop making less than $5 a day.

I'm thankful that the hardest decision that I have to make is what I want to eat today, rather than wondering if I'll have enough to eat today.

I'm thankful that I'm constantly surrounded by the people I love, instead of writing to them from a war trench.

I'm thankful that no matter how greedy and selfish we are throughout our lives, God doesn't hesitate to give us all the love and grace that none of us deserve.

Not only during the fourth Thursday of November, but throughout every day of our lives, each of us should truly count all of our blessings.

Good news for Jeff City. Zaxby's is going in next to the carwash between campus and Walmart! I saw the sign yesterday. Now all we need is a Pal's and we'll be aliment independent from Morristown and Knoxville :)

Happy 8 Day

It's November 8th. So, Happy 8 Day to everyone!!! I know I haven't updated in about a week and a half, but there really hasn't been much going on in my life to share with everyone. I've just been going to classes and sleeping alot. My truck did hit the big 69,000 mile mark on Sunday! Other than that, this week has been one of those weeks with nothing to do. Being bored usually inspires the creative side of me to come out, but I'm sorry to say that I've done absolutely nothing of the such recently. I do ask that everyone would keep us college students in your prayers. Excluding me, everyone around seems to be having a stressful week. I'm not sure if it's exams, or big projects due, or what, but just keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers.
In other news, I'm tired of school and ready to move to Canada. If anyone wishes to join me, I would suggest that you bring money for souvenirs and a bagged lunch.
I hope everyone's week is blessed, and let's try to help others :)

Mr. Brian
