Disclaimer: I hit publish but had to come back and add this. Please know if you are someone who has things they just can’t be grateful for – now or ever. I honor you and that truth. This was just true (and needed) for me today.
Giving thanks for what we have is just the start.
What if we give thanks for what we don’t have, what hasn’t shown up yet or even the challenges that seem to be blocking us?
Each and every piece of this radically beautiful life is just as it should be.
It’s easy to be grateful for all the cosmic yeses and all the things that go just the way we planned but what about the nos, the losses, the failures, the not yets?
These are just as much a part of the story and worthy of our gratitude.
Maybe even more so than all that’s going right because each challenge gets us closer to our truth.
The path is illuminated not just by what falls into place but also by what falls apart.
Be thankful for everything. All of it. The highs and lows. The yeses and nos.
Practice gratitude for each and every precious moment.
