Day 3,383

Growth:

As I continue reading The Choice by Dr Edith Eva Eger I continue to hear the challenges she faced in her life which I cannot begin to fathom. The minuscule obstacles I face pale in comparison to her difficulties. What really caught my attention is how often she stayed positive and brought up the possible sufferings of her assailants and did her best to find a way to feel bad for them, to pray for them. Her strength, optimism, love of humanity, and resilience continue to inspire.

Appreciation:

So many opportunities for growth, the obstacles which help us grow stronger, the frustrations we push through, and the challenges that test us. They are frustrating, cause stress, and can be difficult to face, but they are all opportunities to grow into the people we can potentially be. Without them our resilience atrophies and our will weakens. Face the stresses, the hardships, the challenges head on and grow into who we are meant to be.

Presence:

Ending the year at home with the family playing games, eating dinner together, and chilling on the couch… perfection!!!

Thanks!!!
