I am grateful for a wonderful day… a lot that I was concerned about—feeling way behind on—is (at least today) proving to be manageable… in the sense that I can persevere and make it to a satisfying conclusion. Of course, I need to do the work.

And I am grateful for the work. That which challenges me the most calls for me to find and keep that within me that I most want. The challenge is an opportunity to dig in, feel what I’m feeling—and change it (for the better).

So… from personal experience I communicate… I have been in the hopeless abyss. I am grateful (in this moment) that I didn’t cash out.
