November...30 Days Of Thankfulness, Day Twenty-Seven

Day twenty-seven of #30daysofThankfulness:

THANKSGIVING!

Happy day! I LOVE Thanksgiving. It's happy, fun, all about family and it reminds us to be Thankful for all of the many things God has blessed us with... and of course the food.

This year's Thanksgiving was AMAZING! It was fun, happy, full of love, family, friends and great food!

Thanksgiving this year was as close to perfect as you can get (minus two minor incidents). I love Thanksgiving and I love reflecting on all of the many things we have to be Thankful for.

I love the time we spent together this year! God gave us this time together and for that I am Thankful. God has given me so much to be Thankful for!

Just yesterday I was reminded how much love I have in my life and how many amazing people that have blessed me beyond words.

Thank you God for the many blessings you have given me.

Today and everyday I am Thankful.

Silent Pain.

I just recently read a blog post about silent pain. It was like it was talking about me. Though the girl that wrote it and I deal with pain about completely different things and hers is much more serious, we still deal with pain and we hold it in. Unfortunately, she didn't say anything until it was to late. Until it had already broken her. I don't want to do that. I don't want this pain to break me. I don't want to lose a part of myself because of this pain. So, I am going tell you about my pain. Not to make you feel bad for me, not so that you can pity me, but because... I want to inspire others. I want to inspire you. I want to share my journey with you, I want you to be a part of my journey. And I don't want this pain to break me. I walk down the aisle in Wal-mart, in the hallway at the hospital where my dad works, at church, in the car, at home, anywhere and it seems like everywhere I go there are flickering lights (flickering lights are a major seizure trig...

Let it be all for you, Lord. Here I am.

It's a scary thing to not know if you're dying from a terrible illness. It's a scary thing to look at life with the perspective of a dying person. It's a scary thing to question yourself, to micromanage yourself, to try to make sure you tell all your people you love them and try to explain just how much...just in case. It's scary, broken, terrifying, it makes my insides...it breaks me, it is scary...I don't know how to describe it. Maybe because I don't want to, maybe my heart is just breaking and I just can't get there. I can't really go there and really try to sort through it...I'm not sure, but I do know that I can physically feel the ache. Not getting stuck in the "what if?" and vain imaginings. Not trying to escape it all. Trying to live right here. To sit, just sit here and watch as God works and does wonders too many to declare...is really hard. It is so hard fighting to surrender and truly rest here. To truly, genuinely accept...
