I am thankful for being alive and for having the most magnificent friends and family. I am thankful for the opportunities that i have had to follow my dreams. I am humbled by the privilege that i have. I am thankful for my life.

Thanksgiving for me has always had conflicting resonances. I was born on the day that we celebrate the kindness of a people before genocide. It is during this week that i reflect on the past year and seek to reground myself.

I will return shortly to the intellectual babble but right now, i am just appreciating life for a moment.
