Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving Day. It is a day when folks generally take extra care to remember the things they are thankful for.  So, I got to thinking about that as well.  The biggest thing I am thankful for is feeling alive.  The numbness is gone.  The not caring, not knowing how to survive every day is gone.  Feeling like my life was not worth living is gone.  I am thankful to know that there is a different way to live.  I can see now how much my illness was controlling my life.  Now, it is a part of my life, but in a way that is manageable.

I am also thankful for all of the people who have, and continue to support me.  Many of you will read this.  Some won't.  I don't know where I would be without you.
