It’s official! Fill Your Own Glass is celebrating its first birthday today!
It has been a wonderful year full of growth, discovery, and revelations. I look forward to continuing on this journey of change and self-improvement, and I am so happy to have you along for the ride. Your encouragement and support drive me onward down the path that has been chosen for me.
I want to say a heartfelt “Thank you!” to all of you who have taken the time to visit this blog. We are all given the same twenty-four hours each day, and the fact that you would choose to spend even a few moments of yours reading my words fills me with joy and a gratitude that I cannot adequately express. Your friendship lifts me up, and your words teach me new lessons daily.
I cannot wait to see what the next year brings!
Cheers!
Karen

Thank you, George. I am so thankful to have “met” you this year. Since we just booked an island getaway a few months from now I think I will have to settle for a virtual piece of cake. 😉
