I thought that Ann Voskamp had a great reminder in this post on how foundational thankfulness is to our lives. I know that during the worst days of our separation it was such a struggle to be thankful about anything. But, I got to the place where I could be thankful that even though we might not be speaking that day with each other, or that our marriage looked grim at that point, at least that day we were not in front of a divorce judge.
