I get anxious. I tried for a long time to deny the fact, but the truth of me is that I do. My most anxious times are in change. Don't get me wrong, I do my best to present as one who loves the adventure of change, who anticipates change, who deals with change well, etc. In reality, I lose sleep over change, I worry about change. I get anxious. I have literally had moments where I feel the physical effects of anxiety - the heavy chest, the shaky hands, the shortness of breath. In my journey of understanding this part of me that was consuming, I discovered.

I discovered that when I am truly thankful, there is no room for worry and anxiety.
I just went through a change in my life - from working full-time to being a student. I have had many anxious moments, but I can truthfully say they have not consumed me. I have so much to be thankful for in this change.
It is good.
The truth sets us free, right?! Glad you're facing the anxiousness and moving forward! You're right. Thankfulness dispels worry.
