It's been a rough year and I came very close to being furloughed. Managed to get a new client just at the right time and now I'm thriving again. I'm thankful for having frankly a lot of luck over the years which has put me where I am today. I'm not saying hard work wasn't important too, but sheer luck has been helpful too.
So many things are, frankly, out of our control, and we act like they aren't sometimes. I think being thankful is a way of acknowledging that the lines fell out in pleasant places.
