Reflection: “Anything is possible when you have the right people there to support you.” -Misty Copeland

Today, I’m grateful for: My best friend

Challenge: Call your best friend.

Do you have that one friend who is just the BEST listener? Someone you can confide in —honestly, vulnerably, whole heartedly — without any doubt that they will love you any less afterward? Someone who has a way of making you feel validated in your perspective, and at the same time, helping you see the same ideas or challenges in a whole new light?

I DO. And her name is Kayla. And I am so grateful for her.

In a year that has stripped us of so much, I’m so grateful for a friend that brings me safety, comfort and love. No matter if we see each other once a week or once a year, we always seem to pick right back up where we left off. The ease and comfort of just showing up and BEing is a peace that few experiences offer us these days, and for that, I am grateful.

Whether it’s a listening ear, tears shared in confidence, a warm hug, or joyous laughter, our time spent together fuels my soul, and leaves me feeling so grateful. As we move past the one-year anniversary of a pandemic that has reshaped our world over the past several months, I feel so grateful for great friends like Kayla, and our quality time spent together (which will

hopefully increase in the near future!)
