I don't really have anything specifically to write about tonight. But I did want to write in my blog. Life has been pretty crazy for us. We purchased our first home all while my husband was working 12 hr shifts (7 days a week) with his shift eventually switching to night for a little while. I'm a creature of habit, I have to have my daily routine planned. So when my schedule changed with the house buying/moving process, I was jiggin out. LITERALLY. I took a few days off work to start moving into the house. My angelic mother came into town to be with me during the process. I thank my lucky stars that she was there with me because she was able to calm me down...a lot. I don't like change. I never have. I hate moving but it's funny because I have moved so many times in my life. Even though this process was a happy and joyful one, I still managed to get overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, and depression.
I continually had to remind myself of the many blessings in my life. My life is beautiful and I have everything to be thankful for. But adversity will always be there to try to make you focus on the negative and doubt the positive choices you have made. It's always important to step forward in faith and to never doubt. Blessings aren't always wrapped in pretty packages but can be disguised for you to find its true beauty. There is beauty all around us, we just need to make sure our eyes are open and looking for that beauty.
Okay, maybe this might be too much and it's not my usual post but I felt like I really needed to write this out. Or maybe I should keep to writing in the mornings and not so late into the night.
