So I aint gonna lie today is kind of a difficult day to write about what I'm thankful for, or at least I thought it was going to be hard. See like I said in the first post Im normal and like everyone else I have bad days and bad weeks and stuff happpens. So this week has started off in a rocky way and today wasnt the best day but it wasnt the worst either, just a ehh kinda day .
So I thought it was going to be hard finding something to be thankful for until half way through choir practice. No I am not in choir however I've always been around choirs since I was a little kid because my mom has been part of the spanish choir since I can remember! So listening to her practice use to be my favorite and I guess it just stayed with me cause now that I'm older and I havnt been to one of her practices since I was really little, but I LOVE hearing the 6:30 choir practice and sing all the time. They are from the "teen" mass as we call it haha. Anywho I'm thankful for them because like I said it was a ehh day so I decided to go to choir practice because listening to them just makes me happy and they practice in the church so it's a good place to think you know. And I was sitting their thinking about my day and praying and yeah I was feeling kinda down but everytime I looked up at the choir girls they were laughing and dancing and smiling and always doing something that I just couldnt help but smile! haha It reminded me how much I love them, and then OF COURSE! they sang this song that says "i'm coming back to the heart of worhsip, cause it's all about you, it's all about you Jesus, im sorry lord for the things I've made it cause it's all about you, it's all bout you Jesus". As corny as it may sound that really helped and got to me. I was making it about something that didnt matter in the big picture. I was making this "bad" situations sooo important when the only thing that matters is love and I have a lot of that in my life. I love my family, I love my friends, I love my faith and God and more importantly they Love me....or at least thats what I think hahahhaha. And sure the issue is still here but it's just not number one on my list anymore....still dealing with it, but again their are other things that deserve my attention more.
So I'm thankful for their practice and that they let me listen in on their practice because just them being them and hearing them sing (which I have to brag they are the BEST choir lol) it made my day and it reminded me that there is always something to smile about and today it was their friendship and their "sillyness" lets call it haha.
CHALLENGE: Sometimes it's hard to sit and think about our day and such, especially if it's been a "bad" day we usually don't want to sit and think about it. But I think you should, find a wuiet place where you can just sit, no talking and limited noise (maybe some music). And think about your day no matter if it was good or "bad, and if it was bad dont sit and worry about it but rather just relax and think through it and pray a little. Maybe like me in the midst of the "ehh" feeling something will remind you what is good in your life.
