Re•building joy - encouraging myself

We can all agree. It's been a rough few months around here. I haven't shared half of it. Sometimes it's felt like we almost catch our breath with one thing only to be hit by another, stronger wave. I saw this verse and typography on pinterest and felt like I needed it written on my face. So I did just that. (graphically speaking)
I needed to be able to read this, and know that it could be me, too.

    Thanks for that quote. At the beginning of last year, instead of New Year's resolutions, I picked the word "joy" as kind of my theme for the year. I wanted my life to reflect joy in everything I did. Two months later, I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma cancer. My faith and my chosen theme took me through everything I needed to do with grace and dignity, and JOY, and now, after ten months, I am back to work in complete remission! I hope you will be experiencing a better year this year.
