Today came at me sideways, so here it is, 10pm and I am just getting around to writing a bit. I have no pretty photos to offer, no deals, no craft projects, no witty conversations to recount. Just me, grateful for the end of the day. I realize more and more how broken and in need of something bigger than myself I am. Just last night I was talking about how I am who I don't want to be. I wake up with resentment in my mouth and then wake my sweet husband up with that resentment spewing out. Not a pretty sight and who the heck wants to wake up to that?! I did it again today. Blame in on being tired, blame it on PMS, whatever. It's not the girl I want to be and yet, I am that girl sometimes.
I was so grateful for good conversation last night as I met with my neighborhood group (an extension of my church) and we reminded each other of the overarching story that began before time. I got lost in the minutia of the details of my life today, but kind friends gently brought me back to center where I could show love again. I am so grateful to bump up against that kind of truth in you beautiful people. Thank you. And now...(finally) Goodnight.
