Day 1: Friday February 11th, 2011

Dear Faith,
I am writing you this thank you note because it is about things you do not like to hear about.  You are a dear friend whom I love as a sister, you remind me that there are people in far worse situations than the ones going on within my head and body, and how I actually can do something to better my situations.
You don't sugar coat your response's nor do you worry that I am going to be angry with you, since you know you will have me laughing within a few short minutes.
I may not always want to admit when I am having a crazy moment or when I am selfishly being a 3 year old, but you call me on it every time and although I am sure there are times when you wonder what you ever did to end up with a friend like me, I hope the great times we have shared out weights those times.  I know for me, the times I have been most angry are the times you are talking to others about my issues, Jennie and Shannon excluded of course, however I have learned that Dee and Megs are amazing women who do understand what I live with daily and Drew well he is like a brother and I can deal with that.
To end this, I want to thank you for the love and the very special gift of friendship you have extended to me over the years.  You are a bright shining sparkling object in my life and I thank you!
SMeh I know would be your response to this, however
Thank you my loving friend for all you have done and continue to do with and for me!

Introduction to my Year and a Day of Thank you Notes

I was on my Facebook, just like everyday and there is this wonderful witch that I follow named 'CharmingPixieFlora' and she announced she had heard about this book.  "365 Thank Yous" by John Kralik. It's about a guy who writes a Thank you note a day for a year and how it changed his life.
I have decided as a way to battle my inner demons and my depression and anxiety I am going to do this blog as a daily way to give back and to clear my mind and aid in my spirituallity.
Please join me on this journey, I believe it is going to be a very interesting 366 days!
