Say Thank You

'When life is sweet celebrate and say thank you. When life is bitter say thank you and grow.' Shauna Niequist

Learning to say 'thank you' for the difficult moments in life is not always easy, yet once we learn this skill we find our feet firmly on the path of grace. When we are able to come to the realization that every experience we have- whether it be joy or sorrow- has the ability to transform us into something entirely new, it can give us just the nudge we need to soldier on through our difficulties.  As Shauna Niequist so eloquently reminds, there is a time for celebration, and there is a time for growth...welcome both, because in the end, it is what will make us whole.
