   Something happened last Thursday, during Thanksgiving which took me by surprise. My aunt, said something very interesting which took me off guard. She had stated she was thankful, for her husband who she is been with a few years now. She had stated, that she was thankful for him for helping her find out that she could rise above new limitations. She was capable of doing more, then what she could believe. I know it's easy during the holidays for people to think about what they don't have, which makes them very unhappy. We often forget, but it's the things that we do have which are more important in life. Even if it seems like those things are problematic at times. As humans we have limitations, but we also have the inner power to reach beyond those limitations.
   I have accepted many unusual things in my lifetime, but one thing I asked new is that I would have physical limitations. With my own limitations though, comes relief and hope for a better future for everyone. I've seen many things, which I couldn't explain. Things that I could only understand by believing that there is a supernatural world around all of us. When you have someone that special behind you, it makes you feel like you can do anything in the world. It's a good feeling, but it doesn't last forever. Still, I'm very glad that my aunt had the courage to say something like that in front of all of us. His reaction was surprisingly funny. They had kissed afterwards, which was something I seldom saw them doing in public. 
   I could tell in a way that she had intended this for good humor, but she also meant it deeply. It makes me want to believe that I can reach beyond my limitations. It makes me feel like I want to accomplish even more. What about you, sometimes are you tired of your limitations holding you back? I think we all get tired of her limitations, and want something better than what we have. The only way we can get that though, is if we try earning that accomplishment.
