I am not fond of Mondays.
Sometimes it is a crazy mind battle to me because I realize my routine is very similar as every other day. I know and have lived through 41 years of Mondays, so it isn’t like I am surprised they come every week after Sunday and before Tuesday. It is a crazy thing to not like Mondays. I am going to work on challenging my mind up to think about Mondays in a positive light.
But today was a day I thought often about how I didn’t really like Mondays.
But then…
I saw a news clip about the Wes Leonard and was reminded of the many students today who were trying to adjust to the reality that their 16-year-old buddy is no longer present in their lives….
I am thankful for my health and the health of everyone in my family ~ from young to old….
I had a phone conversation with a friend who is struggling deeply. She called to put words to something for the very first time. With tears in my voice, I commended her for her courage.
I am thankful for my friends choice to trust me with her heart today….
I was discouraged that the scale hasn’t moved as much as I think it should have in the past week, but then I received word from a friend that encouraged my soul.
I am thankful for friends and family who don’t care how much I weigh, but want me to continue to be healthy.
I have much to be thankful for, every day of the week, even on Mondays! May I never forget to always remember to count my blessings!
