Creative Complex: Character Constructing: Give Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving, Friends!

Yes, I know by this point you have heard about being thankful for awhile. However, I still think it's good to think about it. Plus, this is a little bit different than constructing a list of everything you're thankful for.

This is a Character Constructing, so I'm going to focus it more on people, but that doesn't mean you can't do anything else.

First, pick someone (or something) you're thankful for.

Next, use your imagination and create something.

 It could be:
  • A detailed description of that person, why you're thankful for them, and what they mean to you
  • A detailed drawing of them
  • A comic strip
  • An art project (use clay, paper mache, paint, etc.)
  • Anything else you can think of
You can make your project a story of what they mean to you, express how much you love them, or whatever else you can think of. Your project can have: a character description, be a letter, poem, or anything you want. Your project can be literal, figurative, somewhere in-between. . .

You don't have to do this project all at once, or spend forever on it if you don't want to.

You don't have to share your project with the person you're thankful for, or with anyone else, if you don't want to.

In the end, the most important thing is that you thought of someone you are thankful for.

And remember:

"A thankful heart is a happy heart/That's a simple way to start. . . "(Veggietales: Madame Blueberry).
