Let's Talk!

It's easy to completely disregard some of the simple gifts God has given us.

One that comes to mind for me is talking.

I have spent a good chunk of the last forty eight hours simply talking to people. And other than one or two instances, it has not really been about my illness.

I've been very blessed to be able to sit down with people individually or in small groups and have so many meaningful conversations just about every day life and not about my illness.

And I have to say, it has helped me "get better" tremendously.

And I guess up until this point, I've completely disregarded talking to be a "gift" from God- He provides us, for one, with other people, who we can associate with, and he also provides us with the ability to talk and communicate with them.

And I am very, very grateful for that gift. Because simply sitting and having a chat with someone about their life and mine outside of the illness has proved to be major therapy for me.

I think that before I began feeling better, I was underestimating how much sitting and having a conversation with someone and being able to forget about things and just talk could really help me.

Have I been able to have a meaningful conversation with you recently? No? Let's talk! Please, I would love nothing more than to sit down and have a meal one on one or get together for a cup of coffee.

Talking, if anything has become a "hobby" of mine. I strive for social interaction. However, because of my anxiety, I still find myself rather uncomfortable in large group settings. I feel I get lost in a crowd or a group. That's one problem I'm still overcoming. Bear with me as I work to overcome that.

I want to close with this verse from Scripture: "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another." Hebrews 10:24-25.
