Checking in..

Have you made the best of this pandemic?

And no I don’t mean have you started a business and made a million dollars. Have you been able to pick back up on hobbies that you haven’t had time for? Have you enjoyed the beauty of outdoors? Have you took this time to spend time with yourself? Have you been able to spend quality time with loved ones (or on FaceTime)?

I don’t know about you but it has been a rough year probably one of the worst. Between the coronavirus, politics, and racial injustice finally becoming noticed to the world.. It seems like it’s been one thing after another. And most of all were still in this pademic… Why did we think it would be a month and we would be back to normal?

I couldn’t travel like I usually do but I’ve had the opportunity to visit friends and celebrate their accomplishments. I was able to spend more time with family than I have since I moved to Tennessee. And even though I really miss being in the church I’ve been able to sleep in every Sunday since about April.

Despite everything that has happened if you are still alive you are blessed! And I think my biggest lesson of this year is being appreciative of even the things we complain about the most. It’s crazy how the world has to shift for people to realize that getting out the house on the weekends, or getting on a plane to visit family is really a blessing.

Basically I’m saying count your blessings. Stop complaining and appreciate even the little things!

What are you blessed for in this season?
