“Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.”
Whether you believe in a higher being or power, or not, life should be viewed as a gift.
You only have to be present at the birth of a new baby to understand the preciousness of each new life – it’s a beginning.
My life post divorce has been a gift. When I started the journey, I would not have been able to say that. I thought of it as a punishment and wondered what in the world I had done so awful that this was the outcome?
I have found a new voice in my head, and met many new and wonderfully strong women along the way. I have found a voice through this blog, and a way to share feelings and receive validation of my own.
I’ve taken so many steps backward, but so many more forward – every day is progress, every day is a new beginning to be a better person.
Thank you for being my journey “gift” on the 45 Life Lessons. I’m not going away, you’ll just not see me in your inbox every morning. I look forward to exploring more of life’s gifts this year and even if they’re not tied up, all pretty and perfect, with a big frilly bow – I still look forward to receiving them.
May your journey be peaceful and full of love and adventure! Blessings!
