I have this incredible strength in me that I never knew was hidden there. During my hardest times I knew I ‘could’ be strong but I didn’t know that I would ever ‘have to’ be strong. I have found that when you go through hard times early in life and overcome them, it prepares you for the times ahead in so many ways.
I would have never looked this far forward to see where I would land. Years ago I wouldn’t have known that I could have become the woman I am now, the mom to my children that I am, the daughter to my parents that I am…
Thanksgiving is coming very soon and I had to write a bit about what I’m thankful for. I’m thankful that I finally realized my worth. That I can see what love is around me and how many people truly care for me. With this, I have allowed myself to love those around me that I care for.
It is an amazing thing to see your children become better people while you guide them to success. It is amazing to see your family members find parts of you that they appreciate and enjoy having around, while also seeing how important family can be to you when you, once, thought maybe they weren’t there. (even when they were)
This might sound cryptic but having so many things behind me that were haunting me has really opened my eyes to the many things I can do. I feel I have a limitless outlook on life right now and I want to grasp it without losing sight of the important things in life.
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and a great rest of the year ahead!
