As the year is winding down I always find myself looking back to the events of the year. What were the high points? What were even the low points? Who are the people that are still a part of my life? Who have I had to say goodbye to? What have I learned along the way? Each and every time that I go through these questions in my head I find myself just saying “Thank You”.
Thank you to those people for–
(1) being a part of my life whether it has been all my life or even the briefest of moments;
(2) giving me the experience that helped form another part of who I was meant to be; and
(3) sharing your life so that I could learn how to love and be loved.
Also, thank you God for lighting my path so that I would never have darkness along the way. It is not always easy to be able to say “Thank You” to those people when you think they have hurt you. We always have a choice in how we look at a situation. Are you going to let the wounds heal or continue to fester? I have found that somewhere and somehow I can find the blessing in each person and experience. I have even been thankful when certain people walked out of my life in order for the right person to walk in. When I look for the blessing I find peace is always there. Each day I will continue to look for the blessing and allow peace and love be all around.
May your year be filled with blessings too!
