Thank You...

It seems amazing to me that so many people whom I have never met... or whom I didn't even realized read this blog of mine have reached out to me because of my last post.

Thank You.

From the bottom of my heart... thank - you.

Each and everyone of you - from family to fellow scrapbookers... to people from my past, they have all reached out to make sure I was OK... to show their concern... and you have no idea how each and every comment filled my heart with JOY and I so appreciate it.

I promise to be in touch with each of you to thank you each personally (if I already haven't) when I get a second. 

None of you need to worry... I am OK.  I will be OK. Sometimes just talking and letting it out (and yes even writing it down) can be very therapeutic!!  Reading the post back now... I feel a little silly... because well today Im having a better day...

Anyways... just wanted you all to know that I am good.  I have been keeping myself occupied the last few days getting caught up on my OLW class with Ali Edwards and I love that I was scrapbooking without any pressure... It also was great timing as I was really trying to indulge my word and invite it into my life as I think I needed it more than ever emotionally last week.  Being able to put feeling to paper also was a great help.

And for those of you curious... I could never ever ever give up this hobby. Even if it didn't include pretty papers, memory keeping, and a little bit of art... I now know it includes some very genuine and supportive girls - a community that I love belonging to!

And with that I will leave you with a sneak of my OLW page...

 

Lots of cyber love and hugs going out to you all!

Glad you are feeling ok, just wanted to reach out and say hello! Sometimes our hobbies are the one thing that help us keep going. I have to say sometimes I lean on it, it helps me stay alive and continue making it through rough times cause we all have them. Sometimes you just have to step away to see things clearly and it's not always pretty. You're not alone! Sending my prayers...have a great day!

So glad to hear you are feeling better. I don't think you should feel silly at all about your previous post. It's so good to let out how you are feeling so those around you can come together and show you how much they do care especially when that isn't seeming very obvious. I think it's a good reminder for all of us to make sure to let the people around us friends/family know we love and care about them. And it's always easier to get back up when you have people reaching their arms out to help you. I hope you have a fabulous week. Love the sneak and can't wait to see the whole thing.
