View MoreToday, during my listening time, I came across something that really struck me. Since I've been working on faith - faith in God; faith in myself; and faith in the process; it went something along the lines of 'to help strengthen your faith, not only look back on the times that you had faith and all came through, but also the times that you DIDN'T have faith and everything still worked out. It is always going to work out, whether you have faith in it or not. It is up to YOU how much you suffer until it does'That was something I needed to hear, right when I needed to hear it.
Today has been a beautiful day. I just wanna express that gratitude as loud as I can, wherever I can. Good food, getting new books, and enjoying good company with the love of my life.

Good food, getting new books, and enjoying good company with the love of my life. I hope everyone is having beautiful days, too. If today wasn't the best, I know you've got good ones on the way!

I haven't drank anything with corn syrup in it in just as long. For whatever reason, soda was so hard for me to completely let go of. I never was at a point where it was all I drank, but I drank at least one every day for most of my life. I had my struggles with alcohol in my college days, but that disappeared so easily for me when I'd had enough. I used to think I'd NEVER quit cigarettes, but those also went when I felt done with it, too... Soda though, was harder for me. I still don't know why, but I am glad to say that today was THE day that I realized when I stopped at the gas station on the way home, that I didn't WANT a soda. I'm not forcing myself the way I would have to until my weekend allowance would come (I only allowed myself soda on the weekends for a good while). For some reason, it seems so silly to me, but also so exciting. I used to try to tell myself that soda wasn't THAT bad for me, but since cutting it out, I've lost weight, felt better, and been proud of myself for doing it! I told myself it wasn't a New Year's resolution, but it pretty much was lol. Anyone else rocking any of their goals or resolutions rn?

I am not always as good at expressing my gratitude as I would like to be. The more I've worked at it, it seems the more reveals itself to me.
