Limping to the Finish Line

 Oh my goodness, how my commitment to a daily blog on Gratitude has flagged! As I said in my last post, it doesn’t indicate a lack of gratitude; it’s more of an indication of my current level of following through.

I’ve experienced some important lessons this year. I’m grateful for each one, as they all work together to provide a new understanding of myself and how I operate. Each lesson gives me a clearer vision of where I am in relation to where I want to be, and an opportunity to course-correct. 

Each new lesson learned allows light through the cracks in my armor. The more light that comes in, the more that armor cracks and falls apart. The more my armor falls off, the more the genuine Me is exposed. That’s what I want—to be truly myself in all situations, relying on myself and my Creator (and my Posse!) instead of a false front. The more often I reach for the Higher Truth, the more peace I feel within. That’s the feeling I choose.

There is so much turmoil which is completely out of my control. I choose the serenity which comes from determining what is mine to change, and what is not. 

I’m ready for the holidays. All the cookies and candy has been delivered. All the gifts of clothing have been received. All the gifts for friends have been wrapped and distributed. All is well, as I sit and contemplate what has transpired, and what the new year might have in store.

Through it all, I wish us peace as we experience new lessons.
