You ever hit that point where you feel like getting one more piece of bad news will just break you? That's kind of where I'm at right now. It seems like all of this stuff keeps coming down on us at once and there's just not enough to balance it out. The whole world seems to be in rough shape. Most of the people I care about are having hard times. It's just not a good time for anyone.
Thankfully, when I'm feeling this lost and overwhelmed, good things can happen and it makes the whole world seem brighter. It can even just be little things. Isn't it always the little things that matter? My partner getting his paycheck was one of those little things. It didn't make our financial situation worlds better, but it's still nice to have the income in hand, even if we have to turn around and spend it on bills and other needs. My aunt sent us a lovely package for Halloween. We all loved it. She's such a talented woman when it comes to the crochet goods she makes and sends for our family. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next! It's little things like that which make the whole world seem more survivable.
Today I'm kind of thankful for those little things. It seems the bad news just doesn't stop coming, but I can hope that somewhere in all of this, those little sparks of light will make everything so much better.
