Gratitude.

I’ve decided to throw up a second post for today because my heart is so filled with gratitude and love.

Since I was little I have been taught to be wise in selecting my friends and mentors. Over time I have developed almost a “sixth sense” about people and I can pretty quickly decide if they are someone I should invest my attention in.

For the last few days I have been struggling with some “grown up” choices and have been really torn up about how to handle them. I spent hours talking to people I respect; my husband, my parents, and friends (many of whom don’t even know I was struggling).

It took time but I am finally starting to become calm about what is in front of me, and I am confident that I can make the right decisions.

The people I have in my life are truly gifts from God. I cannot begin to express how important it is to invest in people and develop strong relationships. Obviously if they share your belief it’s even better because they are able to connect with you on a deeper level.

Take true inventory of the people in your life. Recognize who will be standing by your side when the going gets tough and pour into those relationships. It’s in the difficult times that we need strong relationships.

This post is just a blanket “THANK YOU” to everyone I have connected with this week. You may not have even noticed but our conversations have truly had an impact.
