Give Thanks..

Post Thanksgiving, I am so thankful for my life, my wellbeing, my health, and also for a sound mind to think for myself! 

I felt "seasonal depression" settling in on me a few weeks ago. 

The short days & the LONG nights, they take a toll on my soul...

However, I refused to let it consume me.

 I know that I am extremely blessed!

 I know that I am worthy of ALL of the blessings that are bestowed upon me! 

And I also know that there is no challenge that I am faced with that I can't overcome. 

"To whom much is given, much is required." 

It doesn't come as a surprise to me that my load gets a bit heavy from time to time because I know the weight that I've been able to successfully carry before. 

All in all, I am forever thankful for my trials as well as my triumphs. 

I can seek a myriad of things to be ungrateful for, but I choose to find happiness, peace & joy right where I am..

Right where my happiness neighbors my sadness.

Right where my weaknesses greet my strength..

If nothing else, Lord, I am THANKFUL! :)
