Day 26: Grateful

Today,

I am grateful.

There will be days that test me, and I will feel like i’m being run through trial after trial.

But, there will also be days like today where I feel grateful of where I am and for the trials I have faced.

Things might not be perfect, but things are going pretty well.

I have a roof over my head, enough money to pay my bills and buy groceries, a job, and a wonderful little puppy to keep me company (and keep my feet warm).

These are the types of days I need to hold on to, and cherish.

I happily embrace all of the parts of me that make me, me.

I am grateful for where I have been, where I am going, and where I am right now.

Life is a not about believing that terrible things are road blocks, keeping us from our dreams-but perhaps they are simply steering us away from what is not meant for us-and towards what is.

Life is truly a journey.

Also, Happy Pride month.
