Today's challenge is to write about something negative in my life that I have gratitude for. At first I thought this would be kind of hard, what could possibly be good about something negative in my life?
But then it came to me, one negative in our life is that we live so far away from our friends and family. It has really been hard on both Nick and I. We used to fill our days and with friends and family, and now its just us most of the time. Granted we do have my brother and his wife very near by, which is nice.
I love my husband and I love our time together, but I really miss everyone in Michigan, ALLOT!!! But the good thing about missing them all and being so far away is that Nick and I are becoming closer and enjoying our time as newlyweds. AND we do get to spend time with Michael and Lauren(because they are our only friend, lol) so we are becoming closer with them. Which is wonderful!!! I love my brother and his wife so much, and from us not having any friends down here we get to spend more time with them. So to sum up, as much as it sucks to be away from the people we love most, we are making other relationships better and stronger, and like they say "absence makes the heart grow fonder" So we just cherish our time with our Michigan people even more when we do get it : )
