A Holiday letter to to you all
Hey everyone~
How are you all doing?
I don’t really know what to say right now. This is one of those years where it’s taken me a long time to get into the Christmas spirit. Are things alright with me? Well, I can’t go into detail. 2015, for us, has had a lot of pain and conflict.
I haven’t been able to be myself for a very long time… not just this year, but previous years, too. However, that’s changing.
As I’m writing this, I’m recovering from a flu bug – but honestly, this is the healthiest I’ve been in years. I’ve been 100% gluten-free for about six months now, and I’m finally healing, mentally, physically, and emotionally. I’m not sure how many people will understand me, but I finally feel like my old self again.
Alongside the pain and the healing, other good things have happened. I’ve been able to trust, relax, and be honest. I’ve been feeling more happiness and inspiration, and I’ve been able to laugh with all my heart. I’m feeling excited for the future again, to get my life on track so I can get where I want to be.
And, most importantly, I’ve found that there are people around me who are kind.
They are kind enough to let me rely on them when I need them most, so that I don’t have to shoulder the burdens all by myself. I can’t begin to describe how appreciative I feel.
So, with that, I’m just going to say:
I wish you all a very happy holiday, no matter where in the world you are or what you celebrate. I’m thankful for each and every one of you! I hope this December has and will be absolutely wonderful to you, and I hope the New Year has happiness, health, inspiration and friendship in store for you!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
