a glimpse of sharon world...

so i was just thinking...lately my blogging has been a little bit on the depressive side. that's no good. because in all honesty, God has blessed me with so much. and i've just been focusing on the not-so-great stuff. this whole week i've been trying to be thankful and content with everything that God has put on my plate. after my ranting and complaining, i think it's wise for me to remind myself of (some of) the blessings that God has so graciously bestowed upon me. :)

- family: mommy, daddy and liz

they are an awesome bunch of people. always ready to listen, give advice and give me hugs and tissues when i'm feeling all blue. also there to support me through everything. they accept me and will love me - always.
- justin
one of the closest people to me. someone who has helped me through so much. someone who has seen me happy, sad, angry, hurt - and despite everything still accepts me for who i am. he's laughed with me, wiped my tears, listened and has challenged me. thanks.
- friends: you should know who you are. :)
those who have stood beside me, challenged me, talked with me, taken time to listen, cared enough to see how i was doing...*it's very much appreciated...

because, how many times have i forgotten that despite whatever hardship i'm going through, there's someone else in the world that's going through so much more? i worry about what i'm going to eat, while others worry if they will get to eat at all. i have a family, while others are going through life totally on their own. i worry about what i'm going to wear the next day, while others don't even get the luxury of choice (of clothes).

when i come to think about it...is my friendship fiasco really worth complaining about all the time? no. it has been hard on me. it has been confusing, but it's time to be thankful. it's time to be content. :) it will be tough at times...but hopefully i'll manage...

alright....i'm so sleepy and i have a dictation tomorrow in skills. g'nite everyone! :)
