It’s almost difficult to believe that 2009 is now part of the history books. What a year of changes, blessings and experiences. Despite some experiences I’d rather not relive, I’ve been blessed to have some very amazing people and experiences that have changed my outlook on life, the direction my life is heading and my life in general.
It has been a while since I updated my blog. In keeping with my previous practice of writing a gratitude blog on Fridays, tonight affords me the opportunity to both update my blog (which is one of my new year’s resolutions) and express gratitude for things present and still to come (yet another resolution)
I’m grateful for the people who have come into my life this year. Gray, Trent & Kyle have changed my life. I’m grateful for the insight these dear friends bring to my life, along with the enjoyment and comfort our friendship embody.
I’m grateful for the many wonderful experiences of 2009. I had the opportunity to spend time with several close friends throughout the year. My travels included trips to North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky and Florida.
I’m grateful for the musical blessings in my life. I continue to grow as an accompanist, have enjoyed my experience as President of the Men’s Chorus, and the friendships that have come from the group.
Here’s my confession: I’m grateful for the past, but it’s not in the past that I reside. It is the present. I’m grateful for where I am today. I’m grateful for the people and experiences that have gotten me where I am today. I’m grateful for tomorrow. While tomorrow is not promised, I’m grateful for the potential of a new day, for the potential in me. I’m grateful for the new year that is dawning and for the opportunity to grow personally as well as in love and gratitude.
