What Are you Thankful For?
James 1:17 says "Every good and perfect gift comes from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change."
This shows how every single good thing ever to have happened is a blessing from God! Nothing is good apart from him, only a broken attempt to.
Since God is so good reblog with 3-5 things you are thankful for. Being grateful is one of the best ways to draw near to God and find contentment.
Here are mine:
That my dog found an amazing home
For my wonderful, dear friends with whom I do book club
For my gift of writing and imagination
For wonderful, inspiring stories like LotR and HTTYD that have moved me personally (and furthered my faith, though that may sound surprising :)
For close family to be with for Thanksgiving!
🦃🦃 Happy Thanksgiving!!! 🦃🦃

its so scary to put yourself out there but a SINGLE message saying "hi i loved what you made it touched me in some way" makes it all worth it 10000%

poetry and musical theater get similar accusations leveled at them in terms of not being realistic, i.e. “no one fucking talks like that” or “people don’t randomly burst into song in real life” and sometimes i just want to take people by the shoulders and say. there are forms of art that are not aiming for perfect realism. are you capable of handling that

I remember discussing Tintin casting choices with a friend from Germany and remarked how it was odd he often has an English accent in adaptations rather than a Belgian one, and my friend just replied "that's because Tintin gives incredibly strong English boy energy (derogatory)"
Here in the UK there's a lot of weird classism tied into accents. Today accent diversity and representation in broadcasting is actively pursued but in Tintin's time there certainly was a preferred accent to have.
imagine this exchange happens between pages 28-29 in The Crab with the Golden Claws
