Blessed

I feel the need to take a moment to step back and appreciate my life. I've been going through a difficult time recently (and I can take the blame for a good portion of it). That said, it hasn't been easy and I couldn't see an easy way out, so for a little while there, I just shut off into myself. I stopped talking and I stopped feeling. I've been working to change that, to open back up and reemerge, but it's a slow process.

This weekend, I had a beautiful reminder of fact that I still have friends and family that love and support me. I have not been forgotten. So simple, yet so powerful. I'm starting to feel like everything is going to work out and it'll be okay. The journey isn't over, but a new day is dawning, and what a glorious sunrise.

Okay, so technically this is a sunset, but I took the picture with my phone the other day because it was so nice. Of course, the picture doesn't do the sun justice, so you'll have to use a little imagination...
