World Gratitude Day

I’ve had a tough couple weeks. Thinking about my future. Thinking about the election. Thinking about how much hate and lack of peace is going on right now.

I was edgy. I was moody. I just wasn’t happy.

I got to the point where I needed to shake this feeling. It wasn’t doing me any good. I realized a lot of the reasons why I was having a tough time, were completely out of my hands. It brought me back to when I was in the hospital awaiting the heart transplant call.

No matter how much positivity or negativity, it was out of my hands. I knew there was a process and requirement of patience and it quickly grounded me back to where I need to be.

Right now, all of us are struggling in some way. It’s important to find the path to get you back, to where you need to be, to function. You don’t need to be 100%.

Go back to a time, where you are thinking and doing well. Recognize how far you’ve come and give yourself credit on doing the best you can.

You’re here and we are all glad you are. It’s the perfect time to slow life down, and focus on being grateful. Celebrate being grateful.
