Giving Thanks

Belated Thanksgiving Thoughts

The last couple months have been marked by low-level sickness and total overwhelm.  In the midst of that, however, I have found a few things that I’m thankful this year.  I didn’t manage to post this at the societally-appropriate time, but that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped being thankful for them.

This year, I’m thankful to have an amazing partner who supports me in my artistic endeavors. My life has gone in directions I hadn’t really ever believed it could (or, in parts, even imagined), in part because of my partner’s support.  Best of all, my partner even doesn’t mind that I sometimes drink coffee!

I’m also thankful for vectors.  I’m not quite sure who first thought of representing an image purely in terms of points, lines, and curves, instead of as maps of individual pixels, but I am really glad they did.  Relatedly, I’m thankful to the people who have the time and skills to post tutorials on various tools for wrangling vectors.

I’m also thankful for having supportive friends.  It’s fantastic to have friends who comment on my posts here, occasionally buy my designs, and even ‘like’ my crossposts to Facebook.  I cannot even express how much I appreciate my friends who have stepped up to help me out in the latest changes in my life.

In general, I’m pretty amazed by the awesomeness in my life and pretty damn happy with it.  I hope your lives are full of happiness and joy as well.
