i am thankful: for all I have embraced in 2013

I am thankful for all I have embraced in 2013.

I’m a bit late for my last  “i am thankful” series post-but only because i have been wicked busy at my studio table with a fun series I have planned for December (more on that in another post 😉 ) .

For my  “i am thankful” series this year  I didn’t post everyday- so I didn’t list the things like my friends, jimbo, chris, mister harley, my job, my health etc etc.  As I was reflecting on what this post would be about I was reminded it’t the end of the year and I will soon be picking another “One Little Word” for 2014. I realized in 2013 I have embraced a lot, and for that I am thankful. Some of it I talked  about here on my blog.

Change was a BIG one. I left my home of 10 years, I left the ocean to move to the ocean state (only not near the ocean). This has given me the opportunity to save money, teach more classes, create more fun things for shurkus.com, take on freelance web & social media work just to name a few things.

I embraced a new relationship– after being single for a loooong time and realizing I just may be single forever and semi-ok with that. Just like they say- when you least expect it- it will happen. Well, it did- and I couldn’t be happier. I truly found my best friend.

I embraced changes at work, changes in friendships. I embraced. All of this has helped me to grow, to learn better who I am and to step forward. This all makes me very thankful. I am quite content where my life is right now, where it is going and what it is approaching.

Even though this is the end of my thankful series for 2013, I am strongly contemplating making this a series all year long in 2014.

Thankful to embrace
