You may need more lessons of how to stay strong in certain situations or more wonderful things to do for others: "There must be a reason that I am still here. " For someone who has recognized many wonderful things are happening to them. And in spite of the losses, you are taking time to express your gratitude for the good things around you. Some forget to do this.

Comment from Wendy G
I enjoyed your honest and realistic post, and it does seem as if you will be better off now, walking with Jesus and listening to His voice, loving Hima nd His creation more each day. Nobody should be made to feel like garbage, and you are definitely God's treasure.

We are all God's "treasure" even if we are made to feel like "garbage" by others. Our worth can't be based on other people's evaluation of us or even our own evaluation of ourselves. So enjoy and keep praising God!
Who is watching your cats while you're in Costa Rica?
Have a wonderful New Year with lots of happy events!
another wondeful week (wonderful)
see Ty wonder (the wonder?)
world if I have too. (to)

Hi Helen, thank you so much for the review, and the cats are taken care by my friend and neighbor. Happy New Year with delay.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Dear Iza, I've noticed your absence because you've always been so active previously on the site. I'm pleased to hearing the break has restored your equilibrium and filled you with renewed hope and expectation. Your experiences have obviously been testing ones and I wish you much more happiness and good fortune in 2024. Small edits: that (it)is ok to say; cruelty is not part of the equation (no 'it'); somebody else('s) treasure. Thank you for sharing and Happy 2024! Debbie

Comment from estory
I really liked your letter. I think it's one of your best posts. It has a great personal style to the voice, lots of personality in the humor and angst stretched through it, and I liked how you used the natural beauty of Costa Rica to symbolize the beauty of the world God made for us, the abundance of life he gives us the chance to enjoy. It's a great piece of new starts. A fun and upbeat read. Something of letting go of the past and setting out for a new adventure. estory

This was all very well stated.,I could feel your honesty in the posted word.
Your love and gratefulness shined though.
I liked your thoughts on the waves and how they washed your sorrow away.
They never stop do they will always try to do what you need.
Nicely shared with us.

Comment from BethShelby
I enjoyed reading you upbeat tribute to the ways in which you feel God has blessed you. In spite of some things that weren't pleasant during the year feel you learned a great deal and you were able to let go of some things that weren't working for you. All of this has strengthened your faith in God and taught you had to appreciate your own self worth. I so glad you had a wonderful holiday in Costa Rica. I hope 2024 turned into an even better year in your life.
