Thanks and Giving This Time Of Year

I have enjoyed this year with its expansive offerings.

Not enough time, family illnesses, single handedly raising a two year old, not enough sleep, completing numerous courses, moving my residence, and just like so many of you, many other life changes and challenges, too many to list.

We can appreciate the gifts from expansion.
I love where I live, I am closer to family members, almost done school, and even though my two year old still takes over my bed at night, he can now wash his own hands and helps me make his lunch!

 
Challenges are followed by accomplishments. These experiences move us in new directions.
Challenges appear like cloudy jewels just waiting to be polished up and appreciated.
 
I like to use the end of the year to recap all the challenges I have worked through and to offer thanks for the jewels brought forth from them, as well as to reach out with helping hands to others who are in the midst of their own expansion.
Can you imagine who or where we would be today had we not had the chance to polish all those jewels through life, let alone the ones from last year?
 
Wishing you all love this Thanksgiving Season.
Happy Polishing!

    Hey Renay!! I absolutely love how you say we can "appreciate the gifts from expansion." As I'm sure you'll agree, we live in a Universe of expansion. Infinite in its scope, we as humans are always moving towards the light or falling into a black hole of fear. Thankfully, we have beautiful souls like yourself to help remind us of what's really important.

    Much love,

    Thank you Renay, yes it has indeed been a fruitful year, particularly for light workers,health workers and all those on a spiritual path. You are clearly an Earth Angel Renay, being put in place to be in the best place for the next phase of all that is to be demanded of you. I give thanks that you are on the planet and I, like Ed, am grateful in a UK non-thanksgiving kind of way!
