The Things I’m Most Grateful for Right Now

 

If you asked me what I am most grateful for right now, I could probably give you a million answers. This would have nothing to do with the fact that I am indecisive. 

But when I actually sit with the question - it truly comes down to a few things.

I am grateful for my husband and the life we’re building together. Not because every day is perfect (HAHA NO). But because having someone to share the ordinary parts of life with is something I never ever ant to take for granted. 

I am grateful for my family, my friends, and the people who continue to show up for me. The ones who listen, laugh with me, support me, and remind me that I don’t have to navigate everything alone. 

I am grateful for my health (for the most part), the opportunities I have been afforded, and the ability to keep starting over when something doesn’t go as planned. 

I am grateful for my little home, our boy Gus, the routines we’ve created, and the seemingly insignificant moments that make this apartment feel like home. 

I am also grateful for me. 

For the resilience, the determination, the willingness to try again, the times I have been knocked so far down yet I still manage to get back up, and the courage to recognize when something needs to change. 

Sometimes, we get so caught up thanking everyone and everything around us that we forget to acknowledge the person who got us here. 

Today - that’s what I am choosing to do.
