A list of 100 things I'm thankful for this year, in no particular order. Happy Thanksgiving, all!
The Stories I Tell
Once upon a time there was a little girl who, as she grew up, discovered that her heart came alive as she engaged with her story and learned how to share it.
Mosaic
When something is shattered sometimes the pieces are too small to put back together again. But that's just because you're looking at it wrong.
I wish someone had told me…
I wish someone had told me nine years ago that sometimes in marriage, you need to separate. And that doesn't mean you're giving up. Or you've failed.
This is Us
We are in the midst of a relational Harvey-sized disaster, devastating our fragile construction of a marriage. We’re both being broken apart. Stripped down and laid bare. And it is terribly painful.
But there is hope.
Glennon Doyle Melton, I Forgive You
She talked about the messiness of marriage in a way that I deeply connected with. She never shied away from the hard stuff. But she always did that in the context of why her marriage - and marriage in general - is worth the fight.
Or maybe that's just what I took away from it.
Anyway, always until now.
