It's been awhile since I've written anything, so I thought I'd break the cycle today! 

Life has been busy in a good way! I'm waking up happy every day and that's something I haven't genuinely felt in approximately 6 months. I just know that I'm moving onwards and upwards to a better better and brighter future, and I'm so thankful that God has sent angels into my life this year. My heart feels so full and so open where just a few short months ago it felt half-empty, bruised and wounded. I'm beginning to feel like myself again and it's as if I've been given new eyes with which to see the world and a new lease on life. I can't express just how freeing it is to be able to wake up every day with a smile on my face and to fall asleep with peace in my heart and in my mind.

Dear Lord,

I want to thank you for everything that you have blessed me with thus far. It has taken me all these years, all this pain and all this hurt to finally see that I am wonderful, that you care for me and that I am so worthy of love and acceptance because I am your child and I am special because I am me and no one else is or will ever be. I'm able to see all the beauty that this world has to offer and I'm wide awake to the wondrous light that surrounds me and that exists within every living thing on this planet.

I am able to shine a light onto others because I have finally opened myself up to the brilliant light that exists within me.

I pray that I will continue down this well-lit path and continue to be a blessing to others.

With all of my heart,
Amen
