It's been rough, some days... but with Thanksgiving just past I find myself, like so many others, reflecting on the things I am thankful for. I am thankful for the things that I believe in, I find that these things keep me grounded, give me purpose, and challenge me to be better. Knowledge of a Heavenly Father that loves me, believes in me, who give me opportunities to grow and become strong... my family and friends, who interesting enough love me, believe in me, and also provide me opportunities to grow and become strong.
I haven't been feeling well for weeks now, some days worst than others, which has left me strained and I find myself feeling bad for things I haven't done, things I have said, and people I feel I have let down. Why is it we always feel like we have to do it all? There are no accidents and I think my current health issues have forced me to slow down and make some personal assessments. Why wait until January to make resolutions... each day is a gift. I need to take better care of myself, simplify, re-dedicate in being a better "parent" to my little ones, a better mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend... I am thankful for the opportunity to make a difference in so many lives and even more thankful to be blessed in my own life by these same remarkable people!
