Ok, so it's been a month... my bad. Maybe I will a little overzealous about this whole graduation thing. Don't get me wrong, it's been great and a lot has happened. God definitely provides, that's for sure!
I have, however, learned a lot about myself. For example, the fact that I've avoided this for the past month says something. I've realized that I'm not as content as I thought I was... I recognize that the Lord has provided in abundance once again, yet I'm not overjoyed by it. I'm getting caught up in the hum-drum life and things are always just alright... not bad, but for some strange reason good doesn't sound right either... I know there something's missing.
Thanksgiving. There's a reason the Lord tells us to count our blessings... to submit to Him and recognize His work in our lives and give Him the glory. It makes things not about us, but rather His works. Something so simple, yet so easy to forget. So here's to counting the gifts that I'm given.
152. A second job.
Despite the fact that I'm super busy... it sure beats the opposite.
153. Little kids.
One second you think you're gonna lose it and the next they're hugging you telling you you're their favorite. Ok, melt my heart. :)
154. Storms.
There's something oddly beautiful about the cool wind and stillness after the storm.
155. Reading for fun.
I think this tops it all for top 10 things of coolest things since graduating. I have already read almost 2 books... for pleasure. It's better than cable.
156. Summer weather.
Some hate this... but I would take sweaty over freezing any day. any time. no questions.
So here's to giving in and remembering to count my blessings. They're all around. I need to embrace them. :)
