Karma, maybe?

Tonight is a great night for me. As I come upon the week of Thanksgiving I begin to reflect. After Thanksgiving, there is Christmas which is definitely the most wonderful holiday ever. And then you have time for New Years and the resolutions for the new year.  So every Thanksgiving I begin my inventory.  It starts with all my blessings, thanks to the nature of the holiday, and then I ask myself what I have done with this year and the blessings I have received.  This year has been a complete and total roller coaster.  Like crazy, not allowed at Disneyland type roller coaster. I have had moments where I could have been better, but overall I made some miraculous and imperative changes in my life this year.  It has taken a lot of work and a lot of patience and a lot of faith.  Overall, I can truly say I'm actually proud of myself. I'm in a really good place and I am so happy. Life has presented challenges and I have put myself through the ringer and although I know I'm not perfect AT ALL, I stilll have the right to feel proud, right? 

On that note, I am so thrilled about my football teams.  This may seem extremely trivial and stupid, but I was able to attend a Razorback game a couple weeks ago and I was filled with so much happiness as I watched the great team of Arkansas fight so hard to obtain their well deserved ranking.  They have had a rough year of losing Kniles Davis and then having three top defensive players out during the Alabama game to now losing a player to death.  Yet, they continue to show up. My Niners are also doing awesome.  It may seem stupid to be so excited about football, but my life is full of memories of this great sport.  

I am so thankful for the joy that is brought to us in all different ways.  Whether its a beautiful flower, a phenomenal sunset, or a 98 yard punt return by Joe Adams, life can have its moments of perfection.  There will always be trials.  But finding joy in life is as easy or as difficult as we want it to be.  

I am hoping my teams continue to move forward, because as I stated in my title...I'm hoping Karma will work its magic and my teams will hit the top.  :) Woo Pig Sooie. and Who's got it better than us? Nobody?

Two best sayings of the year.
