The Greater Things in Life

To me, it's the simple things in life that matter the most.

Very recently I was let go from a company I had been with for 3 years. It was in an industry that I was definitely considering making a career and though it didn't pay very much, I loved my job and what more could you ask for?? The proposed reasoning of it all can be justified by myself [and most others] as ridiculous but it's pointless to even discuss it any more than I already have.

Moral of the story: I, if not more than ever before, have such a high respect and overwhelming love for all of my family and my friends. Having so much time off has allowed me to get to know each one of them better and I am so proud to say that every one of them has as big of a smile on their face as I do, all the time.[I need that] They have come through for me in so many ways from the simple small things to the great and complicated things. I need to thank every one of them for it. Thank you for the motivation to stay healthy and fit, thank you for the motivation to go after what I really want rather than settling only for what I can get, thank you most importantly for challenging me every day to be a better person and a better friend. I couldn't ask for more understanding and whole hearted genuine friends.

I now have the freedom to open up, express, and introduce myself to new people. The recent connections I have made are phenomenal and I cant wait to get to know them on a different level.

Life, is SO good!!!
