Yes it's that time again. Time to bake. Time to eat turkey. Time to go shopping. Time to be grateful.
On this, the first day of November, I am grateful for this last year. Just the fact that I've survived, is enough for gratitude. But also, I've learned so much. I learned that I'm stronger than I thought. I've also learned that it's ok not to be strong all the time. It's ok to rely on others sometimes. I've learned that sometimes you have to take chances. Sometimes the risk is rewarding. Sometimes things don't go according to plan. Sometimes you want to punch people in the face. Sometimes you realize there are people in your life you can't survive without. Sometimes you need a break and it's ok to take one.
I've learned a lot this year. That is just the tip of the iceberg. And as difficult as this part year has been, I'm grateful for every lesson learned.
