Gratitude of 2016 Proportions

A few days ago, I wrote a list of things, experiences, people, lessons and accomplishments I'm thankful for that happened in the now infamous year of 2016. Some people had a helluva year, the British voted to leave the EU and not to be outdone, America electoral colleged Donald Trump into the highest known political position, President of the United States. What. In. The. Holy. Fuck. It's time to wake up, time to take charge of your own destiny, to take responsibility for your own life, decisions and actions.

Below is a short list of some things I'm thankful for that happened in 2016:
