Gratitude and Wednesday

This past week I was challenged to do the gratitude challenge on Facebook and I wanted to share those three days with you.

I am grateful for my family and friends who bring so much joy and many challenges to my life...without them I would be less

I am grateful that I have the ability to make choices in my daily life, I once positioned myself to allow others to dictate to me my choices.

I am grateful that I understand the difference between wanting everything I have and having everything I want

I am thankful for the ability to recognize humility and times when I need to be humble.

I am grateful that I have learned to express empathy, understanding, and compassion.

I am thankful I have been blessed with the ability to be fair and understanding of so many people from many different backgrounds and restore some sense of justice to community and to others.

I am grateful for the many amazing people I encounter in my job who bring joy and compassion to myself and others unconditionally!

I am grateful for times I laugh especially when inside I have been crying

I am grateful for my health, although it requires a bit of daily maintenance, I am healthy in my mind, body, and spirit.

If you have never done a gratitude inventory I suggest you try!

Also Wednesday is international suicide prevention day...
