On Friday, the first years (I'm in second year animation at Algonquin college.) were organizing a part for halloween. I was going to go, but didn't know what day it was plus I had too much work to do so I couldnt have made it.

On the way home from the party, there was a car accident. Two people are in the hospital with serious and minor injuries, while the driver passed away, at the age of 18. The news hit me hard, even though I've only ever spoken to him once or twice.

This horrible event made me realize that life and death is so random and heartless, that we really DO take life for granted. Or I know I do, I worry about the stupidest little things that mean nothing in the end, when I should be thankful for what I have and who I know.

So having explained this whole thread; I'd like everyone to list the people and things they are thankful for, just so you don't forget.

As for me:
-I'm SO thankful for my family and friends. I couldnt ask for more understanding and supportive people in the world. They are the strings that hold me up in times like this.
-I'm also thankful for each and every person I meet. Every one of them has taught me something about life, wether it's a hard lesson or a good one, it's all useful along the way.
-I'm also thankful for where I live and the freedom I have.
-and last but not least, my good health.
