Good Morning Thrivers!
We're afraid to say it…
Okay, no, not really. I don't think Kanye was even on the ballot in Texas. But all those memes about Nevada picking Kanye and not knowing how to tell the rest of us sure gave us life last week!
And that's about all we've got to say about the election. Well, except this brilliant advice from therapist Aundi Kolber on IG:
The bottom line for us is love your people and love them well. If we don't like something about the world we live in, we take ACTION to change it... right in our own backyards. It’s part of how we thrive.

Notice it doesn't say talk a lot on social media and convince everyone your opinion is right. ACT. LOVE. and WALK it out humbly with God. Those are pretty clear directions.
They're easier said than done though, right? We all need help staying in our own lane, keeping eyes on our own papers, so to speak. It's easy to say, harder to do. We get caught up in all that is going on in the world. We get caught up in what everyone else is doing. And paying more attention to all that rather than our own lives is one of the things that keeps us from thriving.
So, what's a gal to do? Never fear! We've got you covered...

I keep thinking about my friendships lately, and the one’s that I’ve titled “pajama friends”. My husband and I moved around a few times in the past years and with each new location I’ve been in search of these people. So what is a pajama friend, you ask? One that you can relax with…one that you wear your PJs to their house, coffee in hand, move the laundry over on the couch, and sink in. This friend offers you comfort in her home or just in her vicinity. My first pajama friend was Heidi, she was a very special person when I was new to South Mississippi and made me feel immediately at home. She’s the kind of friend that you can just rest with. I’m so incredibly grateful for her, and since then it’s been my standard for friendship. So how about you? Do you have friends like this? DO YOU offer comfort and rest to others? We all have “those days” from time to time where we just need to sit and be 100% ourselves and reset with the friends we can’t live without!

I know it can be complicated to help others while being cautious about quarantine, but all the more reason to get creative! Here are some ideas to try as we remind ourselves of how grateful we are for all that that we have.
