Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone

It’s Thanksgiving Day in Canada (October 13th, 2008), and I’m very thankful for:

- My health.
- My family, brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews, my Dad and my Mom, my cousins, my uncles and aunts, and extended family.
- My friends, both online and off line.
- The opportunities I’ve received throughout the years for personal and professional growth.
- Living in Canada. I love this country and I think it loves me back.
- Having still a deep connection with Mexico. Because I owe Mexico a lot.
- My successes, and my failures. Because I’ve learned from my mistakes and I’ve relished in my triumphs.
- Having had the opportunity to fall in love. Despite the fact that I have also been heartbroken, I know exactly what love feels like, and for that, I’m eternally grateful.
- Calling Vancouver my home. I absolutely love this city, despite its horrendous weather and sometimes difficult people (not everybody, of course – just a few).

I am thankful because I am alive, and because every day I live to the fullest. I do what I can, with what I have, wherever I am. Happy Thanksgiving!

Horrendous weather? It’s the best weather you are going to get in this fine country, my friend. -20 degrees: THAT’S horrendous weather!
