This is my second Thanksgiving in Dominica. Once again, it feels nothing like Thanksgiving. It’s in the 80′s here. I don’t get the day off. My family is no where to be seen. I will probably not be eating turkey (or tofurkey).

But I still do have so much to be thankful for. I am in good health. I have a loving family that I will be seeing soon. I have a loving partner, Micah. I’m living my dream of going to medical school. There is a beach less than five minutes away.

Anyway, happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Note: The pic was taken several years ago around this time of the year. It’s the street outside my house in Arlington, Virginia. It seems so many miles away!
