Good Morning!
It's another Thankful Thursday here at M&M and I'm feeling good.
This morning I find myself thankful for many things:
1. A better mood! Things are looking up as I continue to slay dragons that try to steal my joy.
2. Some good realizations in the past few days: I am worth taking care of. I can make positive changes. I am not alone in my struggles. Others have walked this path, dealt with the same feelings, and survived to blossom and grow.
3. My besties who came to my house on Tuesday and helped me sort through 2 filing cabinets full of junk, memories, journals, and papers. We laughed, we talked, I had a little panic and shaky hands, we ate (Chocolate Torte oh my!), and we worked on my blog sites (thanks, KFH!). How can life look anything but promising with such friends.
4. A really good and helpful book I am reading. Resurrection After Rape by Matt Atkinson. Really good explanations and thought provoking assignments.
5. I'm heading back to Bible study this morning after too long a hiatus. It wasn't intentional. Things just spun out of control for a few weeks, but I'm looking forward to seeing all the Precept ladies this morning.
I hope your Thursday is full of gratitude and blessings!

Sounds like you are feeling the sun(Son)shine today. I liked what you said about slaying the dragons that steal our joy.
