Better late than never, right? Clearly its not Thursday, but Ive had some things knock me down this week. Last night, during a wonderful, very much appreciated conversation with a kindred spirit, I admitted that I still need to write my weekly post, good or bad. ( and asked to be held accountable if I didnt). Life isnt always pretty. It can be discouraging, disappointing, gritty, tough, ugly, annoying, and frustrating. I thought about writing about my challenges, throwing them out there, and facing them head on. I couldnt focus on that though. I kept coming back to thinking about the amazing people in my life (some whom may not know how they impact my life) . Amy and Sarah (Miss M) , your strength and victories over cancer inspire me daily.Michael , your relentless pursuit of health and fitness motivates me when I dont feel like moving. Joy, your fierce love for people, not just family and friends, but for people around the world, inspires me to take a stand and make a difference. Maria , your gentle, patient spirit inspires me to move kindly through life. Susan , you have taught me so much and have always been there -an unbiased, true friend. Marguerite , you have laughed with me, cried with me, and been there to celebrate victories and mourn my losses ( with some sangria in there too), showing me that family isnt just based on DNA. Chris , you are there for me and you are not afraid to be honest-you love fiercely and with your whole heart and I couldnt imagine my life without you. Robin , you are in my heart, make me smile every time I think of you , and the world is a far better place with you in it. Amy and Andrea I feel your love and energy on a daily basis-namaste. Sreevidya , your kindness and different perspectives bring so much wealth to my life. Jo , your thoughts and perspective inspire me to dig deep, and your uncanny ability to understand blows my mind. My Krav instructors push my body to do things I had no idea it can do, force me to push past the limits in my head, and creatively, kindly, and patiently help me train to be strong and keep my knee safe. Scott and Terri are the family who make you feel blessed and loved, and make the holidays fun! Sylvia , you have a very special place in my heart because you are you. My Krav family keeps me safe, accepts me for who I am, makes me laugh, shows me not to take myself too seriously, beats on me, and makes me feel loved.(Donna does too, minus the beatings, of course). I could go on for days. There are so many other people Id love to acknowledge. Please know that youre in my heart and on my mind. I am very thankful that you are part of my journey. . Happy Thanksgiving
