Thanksgivings Day Revolution

Andy is lending me Kurt Vonnegut's "A Man Without a Country," and I love it. It isn't making me think in new directions, but it perfectly highlights everything I think about anyway. It allows me to think critically and be analytical

However, just sitting and the dinner table today, with tons of thoughts running through my head, I realized: Wow, I'm a pretty negative person, and I have so much to be thankful for. You guys are the best friends I've ever had. I just think back to a year ago, and I really had no close friends at school. The "friends" I did have effing ditched me around October, leaving me with NOBODY to hang out with. Although I didn't want to, I latched on to Lauren. It's not like Lauren was an absolute bitch and I hated being around her. We mutaully agreed to go and find friends on our own, so this seemed to be a huge renig on my part. But, lo and behold, our friend groups crossed and we all know the rest. I was thankful for Lauren, today. And everybody else : )

Anyway, the point of what I'm saying is that I need to think more positively. I can't fix everything or be an advocate for everything. Of course i dont encourage anyone to sit around and let injusitices take care of themselves--I just wish people could stop thinking critically of everything because in the end, you may perhaps make things seem worse in your head. I have never been so happy in my life. Why should I dwell on everything thats going to suck in the future? The direction of my life is right on course to where I want it to be, thanks to my best friends. I can't wait to see everybody.
