me reflecting
more reflecting
in the past i’ve written posts (pre krisirisi.com on myspace and facebook) reflecting on the year with multiple observations about what i’ve learned. however, this year i only have one lesson worth sharing. it sums up so much of what has happened in the lives of friends and loved ones and for me personally.
it’s an unexpected theme, but one that i am thankful for. simply put, this year (really as of thursday) i realized that – things get better. (yes, that is similar to the slogan for a recent campaign to help gay teens, but no, i’m not coming out. lol.)
through new jobs, new lives and new outlooks, it’s become clearer than ever to me that faith is rewarded. i’ve also acknowledged that things may get worse, so i should make the most of the good times.
this year i hope to live each day thankful for everything in my life… to walk with the knowledge that i deserve the good… and to be confidence that i can overcome the bad.
and for our musical selection, i’m posting two versions of karen clark sheard throwing down on “i won’t complain”. in the first one, the hat alone deserves some praise. in the second one, turn your sound down a bit, and check out how the men don’t loosen up until 3 minutes in.
happy new year!
