I am grateful for most things such as the house i live in and the things i get. A little example is my phone. about 1/4 of the world does not have a phone. Think about life like this no matter how bad you think your life is someone else has it worse than you.

Thank you Mom and Dad, without you guys I wouldn’t be here today.You guys lift my spirit when I’m sad. Also, you make me so happy when I’m around you. Although, sometimes I might yell at you guys and say “You’re jerks” I regret it because I love you guys so much, and if I ever loosed you guys I would be in pain for the rest of my life. Thank you.

I am thankful for my family because without them I would not be who I am today. I am grateful for my family because I would not be play football or basketball. Those are my two favorite sports. Those are some of the reasons why I am grateful for my family.

I am thankful for my friend. She is always there for me when I need her and she knows that I will always be there for her. When I am having a bad day or a bad practice she is there to make me laugh. If I didn't have her most of the time I would be lost.

Thank you, to my friends and family. Thanks for always being there for me when I need someone, and cheering me up. Thanks for helping me with homework, and teaching me something new everyday. And most of all, thanks for teaching me I am something, and I can do anything. I really have no idea where I would be without you guys, probably not where I am today! I am so grateful.

I am thankful to my older sister, Anna. She's been there for me through the good and the bad. She makes me laugh when I'm upset. She makes me happy when I'm not. She listens to me when I need her advice, or when I just need someone to talk to. She looks out for me, and this is why I am thankful to her.

I am grateful for my sister. Even though we fight all the time, whenever we have a moment of fun together it is worth so much to me. I love my sister so much and I'm really grateful for every piece of advice she's given me and every second I spend with her because my life would be so different without her.

I am thankful for my family. Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today. My mom and dad help me with projects and get whatever I need for me. My oldest sister jokes around with me and always makes sure I'm laughing. My other sister corrects me when I'm wrong and smiles when everyone else is frowning. My brother keeps me occupied when I'm bored. And of course my dog lets me pet him when I'm sad!

I am grateful for my best friend, Shiela. She's always there for me when I needs someone to talk to or someone to make me laugh. She's so smart and funny, and can put a smile on anyone's face. I couldn't possibly live without her. She can be a little annoying at times, but I still love her.

What I am grateful for is my dog Maddy. She is the best. I feel safe when I am around her. I can't stand how cute she is. I think Maddy loves me because she is always licking me and following me around. It's fun to give her love and affection and she returns her love to us by protecting our family. Her friendship and loyalty is amazing. A pet brings people and families together. There is a special bond.

I am thankful for music. It changed my life by showing me apart of who i am. Without music I would still be afraid to be me. Music gave me something to believe in, it gave me the courage i still have today and will have for the rest of my life.

I am very thankful for the support they give me. When I go to golf tournaments, they watch me and give feed back if I did something wrong I know that they are helping me because I see some kids by themselves no parents to cheer them on. I know that my parents love me and would do anything for me to be successful one day.

I am very thankful for my opportunity to do competitive martial arts. It has shaped me to what I have become today. I have become stronger, smarter, and more happy. But more importantly, it has given me the chance to teach what I have learned, for example when i'm coaching one of my team during their fight at a competition I will give them the tips that I was given. Lastly, I get to meet world champions in every tournament that I go, one person that I really admire is my sensei, El Java Abdul - Qadir. One last thing, the t-shirt that I wear is a Hyper Martial Arts t-shirt. It is my support to the people out there.
