Someone's (mine) thankfulness has no limits, let me explain you why. Yesterday I wrote a note on Facebook titled "I'm a Loser, Baby" - my thoughts on my weird love patterns. The analysis inspired yesterday's thankful post too. And today, after leaving a comment that made a whole lot of sense to me, Graham, my amazing blogger buddy, is my hero! His remark inspired my status update on FB, which in turn, inspired a very meaningful conversation with my girl pals Deb and Sarah. Right now I am so elevated, so encouraged and so thankful! I am thankful to Graham for always being very on point with his comments and bringing a fresh attitude; I am thankful to Debby for putting in so much into our today's conversation and taking the time to make me feel cared for; I am thankful to Sarah for never judging me and always cheering me up; and last, but not least, I am thankful for having all the emotional baggage that I have - without it I'd never be who I am today, and I'm kind of very fond of this person! THANK YOU!
I'm very thankful that I have friends who've helped make me who I am. Tony and Scott are two of my closest.

I feel very honored to be mentioned by name in your post, Julia. Wow. I feel the same way about your comments: always incisive and insightful, honest and fresh :) You give me better insights on things than my own local friends, and we've never met! How funny is that?
ReplyDeleteNow I'm really curious what your FB message was.
Sometimes, it's really the friends around you who can lift you up in the most unexpected of moments. I call them "my family of friends!" Glad you had your friends around you!
ReplyDeleteAww, Graham, thanks! I'm so flattered! Happy to hear our communication is mutually beneficial :) Aww!!
ReplyDeleteNina, very true!!
Wait, what did Graham say to inspire you??
ReplyDeleteAh Shannon, not really inspire me, he left a comment that made me think in a different direction and I realized a lot of things :)
