Have you ever tried to stock your fridge full of food? It can get pretty expensive. Today I am thankful that my fridge is full and like that most of the time. Now I do share my refrigerator with two other people, but even so, I am thankful.
When I started living on my own, I noticed that filling the freezer was normally easier than filling the fridge. I also realized that I was blessed growing up. Growing up our fridge was full 98% of the time. I leave the 2% for the times Mom went out of town and we survived on frozen pizzas. But not everyone grew up with Little Debbie cakes in the pantry, endless fruit in the refrigerator, or Propel drinks of every flavor.
If I could go back to when I was younger, when I was living with my parents, I would have truly realized our blessings. I would have said thank you more often. I have always been grateful, but I feel like there have been times in my life that I could have been more grateful. I could have been more thankful for the blessings that I took for granted, such as a full fridge.
