My Happiness

"For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. but there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, times still to be served, a debt to be paid. at last it dawned on me that those obstacles were my life. this perspective helped me to see there is no way to happiness. happiness is the way. so treasure each moment you have and remember that times waits for no one." SOUZA

I realize now my unforeseen abuse, for years, was a cloud hanging over my head. As Thanksgiving comes near this year, I celebrate with a new spirit...a spirit for a renewed appreciation for the mercies from God - and my family - given to me each day - as I learn to embrace happiness and learn to step into new shoes of freedom and not fear.

"Thank you Jesus. I am broken and you make me whole"

Sweetest blessings from my heart to yours this Thanksgiving!

PS. My favorite line from Cole after we move to Reynolds: "We did it! We can do anything!!"
