Intro to 365 Days of Thankfulness

First post on the new blog!

Ok, so. You may be wondering..."Why on earth did Bre start ANOTHER new blog?" (Yes, I have a grand total of like...5 blogs now, haha).

Truth is, I feel like this one is the most important one out of all of my blogs.

I have a blog for my NaNoWriMo story, that, when the story is finished, will become obsolete until next NaNo, when it will get a makeover and start over for NaNo 2011.

I have a blog for my photography...but now I have a fan page on facebook, so I don't keep that one up much anymore.

I have my personal blog, which is just a place for me to dump everything about the joys and sorrows of my life on my readers...or just make them think, if I so choose.

Then there's Diary of a Holmesian. I share that blog with my friend Grace, and we just do fun, Holmesy stuff on there.

And now there's this one.

The point?

I'm taking Thanksgiving to a whole new level this year.

I'm taking the 14 days of thankfulness thing that my friend Grace (and some of our mutual friends, and other bloggers around the world) do every Thanksgiving...and spreading it out. All year. 365 days.

Why?

Because I need it. I need to have something to look back on when my life seems to be spiraling downhill...to remember everything that God has done for me, every single day of the year. And I need some place to go, to HAVE to talk about something that makes me thankful. It forces me to think happy thoughts, and be optimistic. Not only all of that...but I figure, it's a good way to remind me to thank God every single day for everything he has done for me.

That all being said...I will do the best I can to post every day. Sometimes I'll post pictures. I dunno. I'll figure it out as I go. You don't even have to read it. But you can if you want...and if it inspires you to do something similar...then by all means do so! I think it will be good therapy for any kind of 'disease' :)

  1. For the record I did not copy your idea, I thought up my own blog post all by myself. I have four siblings who can attest to the fact that I wrote my blog post before looking at yours. That being said I think the idea is awesome and If I were more disciplined I'd probably do it myself.
