What I am thankful for......



Oh what a beautiful day. Its a day to  be thankful for all that is good in this life. Its a time to remember all those who mean something to us. Its a time to think back and remember those dreams that we have for ourselves and to  remind ourselves to keep following our  dreams.No matter what anyone tells you, the things that make up our spirit, our passion for life is extremely unique and should always be cherished. I admit, I feel guilty some that I haven't written anything in so long. I have been caught up in the routine of everyday life that I lost track of this beautiful hobby I like to do called blogging, or writing as some like to call it. Blogging always gave me  an outlet to let all the words and craziness in my head out. After all, who are you if no one listens or  you never get to  say what your heart says?

I spent time with the kids today and it reminded me how special life was. What is it about holidays that make us reflect more? What is it that we get more sentimental this time of year more than any other time of year? I don't know what  it was, or how...but I am glad today reminded me of how special life is. For a long time I dreaded the holidays because it  made me feel the aloneness I often felt around this time of year.Who was I without a partner?Who was I  without a  big time job?  It made me miss something that I know I didn't have in my life. But I  thought today that even though I am a single mom on my own,  and without that special person that I still have a full life. I still have the hopes and dreams for life....the desires to be  everything I can be.I still have the opportunity to learn more about this life. I know my job will be  ending soon and I once again will have to deal with the hardship of  trying to get by, but there is something beautiful in the struggles that I will be facing. It is those struggles that I face that will  make me a stronger person, so  I look forward to what  and how I will accomplish things and what lessons that will  have taught me something  amazing. I think what I want to accomplish the most in my life is just to be a wonderful person, friend, co worker, mom, partner, lover, ....to what ever relationship that is a part of my life. I think there is great honor in trying to make every relationship you have with mankind the best it can be. SO if ya see me in a park  taking a walk in the autumn trees, stop by and say hello.   Come sit with me and let us discuss  the  joys and blessings this world has in it for us. Let us connect over a silly story or a heart warming discussion.So when you do ask me what I am thankful for today, I can look directly at you and tell you I am grateful for the opportunity to just be living the best I can and living in a beautiful world where anything is possible.
