I’m lying here tonight surrounded by my two loving cats. One is tired and the other sleeping beside me and the other is lying at the end of the bed just staring at me. I’m grateful for the love and perspective they give me. Their lives are so seemingly simplistic. That’s such a lesson for me to learn.
As I look back over the last week, I’m most grateful for the person I am becoming with each new day. The person I was a year ago and the person I am today are virtually incomparable. I suppose, at heart, I’m the same person, but my perspective, the way I deal with situations, the way I look at life is completely different. The last six months of my life have been an intense period of rebuilding my life following the break up of my relationship with Parker. A couple of months ago, I was anxious to begin another relationship. Now, in hindsight, I’m so grateful that the relationship that I had started did not work out. It was not time for me. I am grateful for the time I have been given. I’m grateful that I am single. Being single is teaching me so very much about what I want, is forcing me to grow. I love the person I am becoming.
I’m again grateful for the people who are in my life to serve as my guideposts, sounding boards and confidants. I’m grateful for the prospects that lie ahead for me. I’m grateful to have people who genuinely love me.
I’m grateful for the millions of “little” things in my life that I take for granted. Each day is a miracle. Each day I’m becoming a new person, a happier person and am the most content I have ever been in my life.
I’m grateful that things are moving forward with putting our house on the market. I’m optimistic for a quick sale and positive outcome.
Here’s my confession: I’m grateful for the beautiful gifts I have in my life, the changes, the peace and the contentment that I thought would always elude me. Happiness is possible, and finding completeness within myself is finally coming into fruition. Life is good.
