My birthday is coming up this week. The big 31…not so big I know, but it’s got me thinking back.
I think about my 20’s and man were they a doozy. I’m sure most people can say that about their 20’s.
For me, I think about the amazing experiences…and the heart-breaking ones.
I think about the five surgeries I had, including one that was one of the most traumatic experiences in my life. I think about my very public struggle with health, both physical and mental.
I think about the wonderful, amazing friends I made and the ones I lost along the way.
I think about falling in love and getting my heart broken.
I think about the people who lifted me up and the people who tore me down.
I think about losing my faith in God and everything I believed in; and then finding my way back to a relationship with God, stronger than I ever could have fathomed.
And so we keep going down the rabbit hole…
