It’s hard to say, without being cheesy or overly dramatic, exactly how blessed I feel today - a Monday of all days. On the heels of what has been one of the more tumultuous months of my life, I’m finally ensconced in a beautiful new apartment, fully moved in and settled. And I’m feeling better, sleeping better, and letting myself relax for the first time in weeks.
Mostly today, though, I am grateful. I’m grateful for all the people who helped me move on Saturday, and for my beautiful church. And for my friends who are my family. I love them so much, I can’t even tell you. I love that they are passionate and excited about things that are close to heart of God. And I love that they comfort me, take care of me, and tell me about myself when I’m being petty or ridiculous. I love that we can discuss things openly and honestly and that they do not hide from hard conversations. Most of the time, I’m not even sure they know how important they are to me.
Lately, I’ve been wallowing a lot, I mean A LOT!! I’ve been so encumbered by my own mistakes and angst that I’ve had little to give to any of them. But late last night, as I lay in my comfortable, cozy bed with the pillow top mattress, curled up under the weight of my comforter and soft sheets, I thanked God for my friends. I thanked Him that I can be my ridiculous self with them and that I feel loved by them. And for me to feel loved is remarkable and HUGE!!
My heart is very full today, friends. Thank you for being kind, hilarious, generous and amazing.
You complete me............
(okay, that last bit might be over the top, but you get the idea!)
