The Weekend

Funnily enough, when I'm traveling, I frequently fail to blog.

This does not mean I haven't been thankful. I have been keeping tabs on the things I'm thankful for every day that I do not write about them.

So let's look back on this wonderful weekend:

Thursday, November 14th I was thankful for my tenacity: the stubbornness I was born with combined with the thick skin I've developed these past few years has resulted in perseverance being one of my greatest assets. In not losing heart, I pray also to not lose heart. I know it will be a lifelong struggle to maintain vulnerability and openness while cultivating stick-to-it-iveness, but it can be done; I am confident! And thankful for already being this far along the path.

Friday, November 15th I was thankful for the wonder that is a friendship birthed from music. I am fortunate to have many of these friendships, and fortunate that whenever I see these friends after a long period away from them, we are able to pick up right where we left off. Because as Brent said last night, we don't have time for silly formalities and politeness in this world. It seems like our time with the people we care about is never enough, so we have to make that time count! And so we just jump right back in. And that is happiness.

And finally today, Saturday, November 16th I am thankful for 5 days straight without an audition!

I don't hate auditions, I just love guilt-free coffee, late nights, and The Tudors.
