happy new year

i'd given up, but i now realize how much this exercise really did help me. seven months isn't too bad, eh?

so here we go again. i won't log these on a blog necessarily, and i'll try to be more intentional and earlier in the day about it.

still, my thing for the day, first for the new year, is from this evening.

i am thankful that i do not have a sordid past, nor painful stories to tell. i have been spared this, not because of my goodness, but because of His.
