This was a busy weekend, and while I am grateful for the chance to have seen people and “gotten out” a bit, I am grateful for some quiet time coming back home as well.
On this day of the birthday of a friend who has known me for decades, I am incredibly grateful for those friendships. There was a period of my life where I was moving around quite a bit, and it’s kind of incredible that there are people who have stuck with me for such a long time and over great distances.
I was talking to a friend earlier in the week, and she could tell that I was getting frustrated and overwhelmed with all the stuff here that is still in the “projects waiting to be done” category. She suggested, as much as possible, taking a little step back and working on gratitude that this was the set of issues going on, rather than, say, issues of mere survival. Something inside me still doesn’t like hearing that sort of “correction”, but she said so with love, and as a way to pull back for a bit more “big picture” perspective. Sometimes we all need that, even when it isn’t comfortable.
I am thankful that I got to spend time with a relative and that she seemed to have been cheered by the visit. The day gave me a few things to consider, and those things keep floating around my head.
I am thankful for this life.
