For my Good News post, I often share something good that has happened that I am thankful for. This time I am thinking not of a specific event but something more general.
I have many people in my life from different areas who are very encouraging. They push me to try new things and to leave my comfort zone. They affirm me when I do well and help me when I miss the mark.
Not only do I appreciate their presence in my life, it also makes me want to be that person for other people.
It is so easy to critique and tear people down. There is always something negative that can be found. But that encouragement that is used to build up is what we should strive for.
So thank you to all those who encourage me.
