“One of the most important things you can do on this earth is to let people know they are not alone.” Shannon L. Alder
Day #3
I’m thankful for the people who reach out.
Sometimes, it’s hard to stay connected if a friendship feels one-sided, where the burden to reach out feels like it always falls on one person. I appreciate people who recognize that we’ve all been on both sides and still keep making the effort. I’m thankful for the friends that don’t use the excuse of being “too busy” to justify not reaching out. I’m so grateful for the people that take the time to really listen and are genuinely interested in what I have to say, friends that know sometimes you just need to be heard.
If I’m overwhelmed and in a mood, I may pull in and close myself off. But it’s at those times when people don’t hear from me that I need to hear from them. In truth, it’s especially at those times when others’ efforts to reach out are so appreciated, even for something as simple as a little text, just to know they are thinking of me
Day #2 I’m thankful for curiosity and creativity.
Day #1 I’m thankful for the love of my family and friends.
