Thankful Thursday #11

Y'all, the month of October is not being friendly to me.

It's not so much that one thing has happened but a lot of different things that are small to medium-sized (and one big extra large) are in my sights. Alone they're not so bad but when dealt with together, it all is just so overwhelming.

I do not like feeling overwhelmed. I'm not sure who does come to think about it. But for me, I start having those feelings of self-doubt and insecurity that I can't really handle what is in my path. It's a major struggle for me that even on my best days I still have to push to the back of my mind.

A lifetime of being a worrier and control freak can really do a number on one's mindset I tell ya.

But today I am thankful (not for the adversity because honestly I can't be there yet) - but for the fact that I know from past experience that this too shall pass. That whatever the outcome, knowing I did my best will be comfort enough. While right now the fear, uncertainty and stress seems too much for me to handle, I know that I've come through it before and I'll do it again.

So here's to learning from the past, doing the best I can in my present and trusting that my future is secure. Because in the end, aren't we all doing that?
