3 FREEDOM years for me♥

  Today marks my 3rd anniversary. As I reflect on my journey, I smile. What I once viewed back in 2008 as a herculean task was what I made that out to be. I have grown since then. I have learned that the journey is everlasting. There is no finish line. We continue to walk the FREEDOM path. It is paved in the footsteps of those who have walked before us...and still do. I burst with a sense of pride. This is a gift that I gave to me on7/14/10. It is something that no one can take from me. Only I can decide to keep and cherish this forever or throw it away as I have done in the past. I know that I will be keeping it. It means that much to me. To my wonderful EX "family" that has journeyed along with me, I say, "Thank You". Today I turn 64 years young. Life is good...I choose it to be♥ Love you guys♥

"The journey is everlasting."  I like the thought of that.  But I sure wouldn't have seven years ago.  Ain't it wonderful how we can change our perspectives!  And you're one who teaches that.  You brighten many a day on here, Linda.  Whether it's by conducting that Train with all the glorious graphics you grab, or with a bit of your wisdom or a snatch of supportive verbiage that someone else wrote.  This site would not be what it is without you.  Blessings on your head.  Beautiful quit, beautiful soul, beautiful birthday!
