Today I am extra grateful for...

Friends!  How amazing it has been to really sink into deep friendships lately!  I am so grateful for their unceasing ability to make me laugh 'till I cry, push me to my limits, and make me see the world  a bit differently.

If I am struggling with something. how great it is to talk to someone who helps me see the struggle from another perspective!  I have so appreciated that ability lately.

I have found that when I am honest with other people, I am able to be more honest with myself.  And being honest with myself means I can accept me.  For who I am right now.  And I don't feel I have to be ashamed of a feeling or thought I had because I can embrace that.  I can embrace myself when I am at my worst because I have friends who never stop loving me.
