For the blessed life I have lived, and living.

For all the wonderful people I’m sharing this happy life with.  Family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances.

For the blessings that abound each and everyday.  From waking up in the morning, to gracefully overcoming challenges that are being presented each day.

For the awesome opportunities that continually pour in.  Meeting and making new friends, learning new things, accomplishing goals.

For all of these,  I am grateful.

I am grateful, even, for all the negative people who come into my life, as they add flavor to the nuances of living.

For the rejections we have experienced.

For people who take advantage.

And those who try to pull me down.

Today, as I celebrate the beginning of yet another chapter of my life, I want to make a random list of things that are testimonies of God’s faithfulness.  I’ll type them as they come to mind.  So here it goes:

  1. Waking up each morning.
  2. Waking up with the arms of my little boy around my neck.
