So here we are…
The end of an era, the alleviation of what has sometimes been a duty, but sometimes fun, sometimes a blessing…
The 365th entry of my 365.
For today, I am grateful for the time to read as I travelled: Khaled Hosseini’s A Thousand Splendid Suns. I love books that breathe you in so much so that when someone speaks to you, you feel like you have to drag yourself back from a whole other world. This book made me cry, made me long for freedom to be known, made me mourn for hurt and hurting. Made me wish I could read it all over again like the first time.
For this year, I am grateful for all that has blessed me – friendships grown and deepened, times of hope and joy in darkness and despair, food enjoyed, places seen… I am grateful for all I’ve been given.
And… if I’m honest… I’m grateful this 365 is done!
