Good experiences

Thankful for an experience today where someone asked me how I was, someone whom I felt was genuine about it. It really means a lot to me.

Being the one taking initiative (most of the time) to build relationships at work, or even in natural settings, it's just refreshing and heartening for me to experience people take the initiative to connect with me and to know me. 

I cherish these little seemingly insignificant moments, that actually mean a lot to me.


Also had quite a good time with my care group at church today; I mean, at the very least, I feel quite safe with them. Really thankful for their acceptance of me, even though I'm like the only female member (unofficially) there. And I like how it's a mutually supportive group, rather than group mainly directed by the leader or where there is a pattern where only some individuals reach out to others. The group is also one where members are self motivated to go because members see the value in meeting together, rather than as a chore or an obligation to tick off our list of being a Christian at the end of each week. Really like the culture of the group thus far.

Life is not always ideal, but I think I also want to hold on to these blessings along the way and be thankful.
