Today I am grateful for new life. Every moment of anyday I have the power to alter the course of my life. So it doesn't matter what I have been doing up until this moment be it good or bad, right or wrong. In this moment I hold my destiny and the course of my life in my hands. Each moment after that is a manifestation of this. Lately I have been choosing to walk in my authority and design and it feel glorious.
Today I am grateful for the sweltering heat and the occasional soft cooling breeze.
I am grateful for my willpower and that I didn't let my addictions get the best of me. I am grateful that after years of abusive relationships I learned to love myself and say, no more.
I am grateful that even though I am severely depressed, this gratitude exercise keeps me grounded and focused most days.
I am grateful.
Today was hard but I am grateful that I made it through without being less than what I have become. I am grateful for cinnamon life cereal, my guilty pleasure. I am grateful for self restraint, letting things go, anger that quickly quiets instead of smoldering rage. I am grateful that no matter what is stacked against me nor how great the odds, I am an overcomer. I am grateful that today proves this.
I am grateful.
I am grateful dor the stillness of the morning. Especially the after the rain stillness that makes you breathe just a little softer and tread a bit ighter. The stillness that causes quiet self-reflection. A sense of sacredness.
For this, I am grateful.
Today I am grateful for the ability to write. For me writing is more than just the ability to put in pen or type what is on my mind. It is also a way for me to really process and organize my feeling on what I think. Through writing I have been able to see clearly the things in my life that are detrimental as well as causing me to recognise beautiful things like learning the ability to love.
