Everyday of my life there are moments where I am in complete awe of how wonderful things are for me. I cannot understand how I managed to hang on for so many years of manufactured and created uneccesary drama. It has been a very long and hard process to come to grips with the responsibility of my former life, but I am so grateful for the journey. Amazing too is the fact that so many of my grace-moments I have the ability to find reasons to appreciate even those things most would only curse. It's not a giant leap forward, but it is a practice of changing the way you look at things-so the things you see will change. That is not a direct quote and I can't remember at the moment who said it---but it is a part of my day to day life just the same.
Over the month of November I am posting my daily gratitude list on my Facebook page and will be finishing my blog month with the whole months worth of posts. I can tell you that for most of the month already I have found those things that I am grateful for and the words come easy to express the appreciation.
I want everyone to know that life is about finding the paths to happiness...anyway you can...however you define that for yourself. All that other stuff is just busy work. At at the end of a life we can remember the smiles or we can carry the burdens...guess which I choose?
