Day 1033: It is good to stop and contemplate ones life. I realize that I have a good life, that I am favored and love immensely, and that I live in freedom being able to choose and shape my life. I have been able to reach many goals and fulfill many dreams and still have many ahead. Sometimes circumstances and season are very hard even dark, like when there is a storm at noon and everything becomes dark. At that point one needs to turn the lights on and turning the light equals to not give up, stand strong, feel the pain and change. Today as I was having dinner alone I saw it as a gift that helps me appreciate that tomorrow I will have dinner with my husband in Arkansas. Today as I was in class I saw it as a gift to be surrounded by intelligent passionate young people that have it in their hearts to help othes and make a difference. Today was not a perfect day I received it as a gift of ordinary peaceful day were I and others choose to keep building lasting intimate relationships. I give thanks for these gifts.
