I would say my biggest blessing is living another day to see another year. Each day is a gift, not a promise.
In no particular order:
1. Restored and deepened relationships with friends and family.
2. Being able to spend time with my niece.
3. A recent engagement over the Christmas holiday.
4. Finally embracing the forgiveness and freedom that God had given to me a long time ago, but was having trouble giving to myself.
All in all, it sounds like it has been a good year. By the way...congratulations on your marital engagement.
I have no room for complaining. I've been blessed beyond blessed! Thanks CJ!
2012 was not the best year for me. Odd as it may seem, I think HubPages was the biggest blessing in my life this year. It gave me something to focus on, an escape.
Well, there have been many blessings, but the one that is most memorable is my mother's recovery from a serious illness. I was deeply distressed and terribly worried about her. I just thank the Lord and all the wonderful people who prayed for her.
My blessing emanated from my family. The poignancy of a forgotten hearth and propinquity is a loss that I don't even want to consider; so I cherish each and every time I have with my family, as they give me the impetus to work harder and better.
getting married to the love of my life, being able to live and being able to give gifts to others for christmas
Healing of a chronic illness that lasted for two-and-a-half years
Thank God you made it through. What a relief. :0)
OMG you must tell me how! What illness, what did you do, etc. etc., I'm writing a blog to help people with chronic illnesses overcome their symptoms and diseases!
Well, my diagnosis depends on which doctors you ask... One MD said depression, a DO said Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus, another DO said Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I personally classified my illness as CFS and myalgic encephalomyelitis.
Mom and I decided to write together to help others heal from Fibromyalgia...and maybe help her to heal, along the way! I think this year was when I got to use the gift of writing God blessed me with to help others suffering from this disease! Maybe, together, we can bring awareness to this chronic illness.
Finding a friend, who helped me to heal my soul and my body, the biggest gift of them all....
