Growth & Validation

So it's been a journey, the last year or so. A journey of growth and peace and joy. I don't deserve it and I'm not sure how to explain it even but so much has changed since some of our family moved away. things are going so good with folks and Jeffs and us. We have so much fun together and it feels like we can get to know each other in a genuine peaceful way. It's just been so so good. It's not only that though...


And ya.


Maybe physically things have improved as well. I've been on the exercise bandwagon. And I take copious amounts of liquid vitamin D. I need to take it faithfully every day but I'm to the place that I'm relaxed. I can tell if I need vitamin D. Like, one lady told me you know you need a little extra vitamin D if you're braking on the passenger side when your husband is driving! Yes. Totally. I get this. And much as I hate to admit it, sugar makes me foggy brained. So yup. All things physical.


But vitamin D falls under mental health as well. And I have two things I've been doing for mental health.


  • be thankful
  • wish people well, including praying that they will be blessed
But isn't that spiritual health as well? And so it's all intertwined. And spiritually, I've been reading Streams In The Desert. I love the depth of that book. I feel pressed closer and closer. I feel peaceful and loved. I feel strength upholding me that is not my own. I feel blessed beyond comprehension. I have so very very much.


It helps that my hubby is so supportive. He's the best. And our little and big men growing so fine and strong are a boost to me as well.


So thanks for listening as I bare my soul. ;)


May you be blessed in your journey. :) :)
