All the cool kids seem to be doing it, why not?
The problem is, I wouldn't really know where to start. I'm just thankful for so much.
My art, for one, it's gotten me through everything from the most boring of lectures to the shittiest of days. It gives me something I can both look back on and see how far I've come, and look forward to and see how far I will go.
Homestuck, as stupid as it sounds, I owe a lot to it. It gave me something to look forward to, and helped me enjoy art again. I draw almost every day (though most of it never gets posted since I don't have a scanner) I swear I'm drawing more than when I started the 365 day challenge on New Years. And the fandom, wow. Never before have I been surrounded by such AMAZING, talented people. For the most part, it's one of the most inviting fandoms I've seen. When Cascade was released for the first time, and the entire fandom it seemed, stayed up ENTIRELY too late, just to see it, and I felt connected somehow. Like we were all in it together, and I wasn't alone when I was half dead the next day at school. A fandom has never made me feel like that.
My friends. As cliche as THAT is, they're all amazing. They're simply the best people and I sometimes wonder why they hang out with me
...Clearly because I have food.. They're usually a handful, what with them getting into fights with each other all the time, but I don't mind. I may not share as much in common with a lot of them, but that's the best part I think, we still manage to hang out and have a lot to talk about. And then of course there are my friends that I share EVERYTHING in common with, oh god the hilarious and epic conversations that take place. Ohgodisitbadthatthehomestucksectionwaslongerthanmyfriendssection? Haha, it's not that Homestuck is more important than my friends, I just don't think it's possible to simplify anything Homestuck related.
My family. I love them, highly dysfunctional as the entire thing may be, it's made me who I am, and I've come out a better(?) person because of it. My parents aren't bad people, I just don't agree with any of their opinions. If anything, they taught me independence, that those older than you aren't always right and don't deserve instant respect, and to have my own opinions (but be able to change them when I'm wrong without being stubborn). They've led me to look at my life and choices, and let me tell you, it's a lot easier making yourself a better person if you've fully acknowledged yourself at your worst.
Music. All there is to say on the matter
My Watchers, hell, anyone who takes the time out to look at the shitty pile of shit I try to pass off as art
Really, I jump up and down with glee every time I get a favorite, and every time I get a COMMENT? Oh my god I about die from shock. So, all my love to you guys, honestly. You all make me so happy
I could honestly go on and on here, but damn this is turning into War and Peace. I'm thankful for all the little things, Some of them not even necessarily good things. I'm thankful for sadness, to add diversity to life. I'm thankful for rock bottom, because the only place left to go from there is up. I'm thankful for power outages, that bring families together. And I'm thankful for The Room, because you just can't have too many incredibly shitty movies in the world.
TL;DR:I'm thankful for ALL THE THINGS. Happy Thanksgiving you guys.
