Day 22

So, I'm still sick. I'm completely pathetic when I'm sick. I have a type of cold that I don't get very often and feel like curling up in the corner and cry the rest of the day. Like I said, completely pathetic.

I got a minuscule amount of sleep last night. The medication that was supposed to make me feel better... yeah all it did was open the flood gates within my sinuses causing me to blow my nose every 5 seconds and made me so awake that at maybe 2 or 3 this morning I fell asleep for a few hours. Yup pretty horrible when you are completely pathetic when sick :-(

Although I feel like crap I am still thankful...

Today I am thankful for blogs. I absolutely love reading about other people's lives. Some people think it's creepy and odd. I ignore those people the best I can. But no really I love reading blogs. I like reading them better than writing for my own blog. I follow are mixture of blogs - fashion blogs, mommy blogs, missionary blogs, lifestyle blogs... My favorites? The ones that a raw and real!

I like to think that I am an honest person. I have come to learn (after many many years of pain) that being an open book does not mean divulging every little detail about yourself to everyone. I now have my safe people. But I try to be open and honest here on my blog. And I admire others who have the strength to share their lives with others. There is so much beauty, grace, faith that comes from hearing - hearing that God does heal!

So today I am thankful that my pathetic sickly self can see glimpses into the lives of others.
