Good evening, my friends.
Today has been one of the greatest days of my life. I want to stay as far away from ego as I can and as sensitive to others as I can, so I’m simply going to say that I saw in myself something that I have longed to see. I was faced with what for me is a mountain, and I saw myself face it the way I’ve hoped I could.
Glory, honor, and praise be to God. I hope and pray that I will be able to stay choosing it as the future becomes the present. And as my mother reminded me tonight, one day at a time.
#1. I’m grateful to be able to look forward with faith and to stand side by side with my great God as we climb this mountain together.
#2. I’m grateful for the strength to get up this morning. I finally got back onto my schedule. It wasn’t 100% perfect, but it was really good. And guess what? It’s 8:18 p.m. right now, and I’m gonna make it to bed by 9 again. 🥳
#3. I’m grateful for the progress I made on the trails today.
#4. I’m grateful that I just found that the Windows emoji menu has a recent screen. That makes it a lot easier to find the emojis. I don’t have to go scrolling around for them.
#5. I’m grateful to have the experiences that help me become who I want to become. The refiner’s fire is real, and it’s hot, but one day, I’ll be pure.
Thoughts of the Day: Bring it on. “Come what may, and Love it.” “The future is as bright as [my] faith.” “Please, Lord, may I have another?”
I love you, my dear family and friends. Thanks, for spending some of your time with me in my life.
Love to you all.
