10,000

Thanks to YOU, this little blog of mine just hit 10,000 views. 

I know that's not much for some of you out there.

But for me, it's golden.

I started blogging back in 2005 as a sort of journal so I wouldn't forget how many awesome people I have in my life, and how many wonderful moments I get to experience. 

Honestly, it's more for me than anyone else. 

Sometimes I go back and re-read entries and smile. 

Sometimes I groan, and wish I had more time to make the formatting just perfect. 

Sometimes I'm tempted to delete old posts that are corny and odd, but Jeff says I should keep them up, that they're all apart of what I was thinking at the moment, and so I keep them up. 

But I always am in awe of this little life of mine, not because of me, but because of Him.

It's true that I'm grateful for my own life. I'm glad I get to be me. 

I'm glad I live right now, where I'm at, with all these wonderful people around me. 

I don't assume it's always going to be this way, and I try not to take it for granted.

Most people would probably look at my life and think it's pretty simple and not so exciting.

And there are always more things I wish I were doing. 

But what I have are lots of meaningful moments, and I know I'll have more. 

But when do we ever know where our lives are going? Never. 

All I have is everything that has given my life meaning up until this point, and I have right now. 

I'm so glad there's a way for me to document a small portion of all of that. 

Thanks for reading and coming along for the ride.

Thanks for every little comment - I love them all.

Adventure isn't missing,

RK
