I can say this over and over to myself, but on a “bad day” it seems to be the first thing I forget. ☹ Today, my goal is to work myself back into this frame of mind, “we all really do have different blessings to be thankful for.”
Depression likes to sneak its ugly head back into our daily lives. I’ve definitely learned that my lifelong faith in God has consistently been my lifeline, my lifeboat, the reason every time I sink I do bop right back up to the surface.
With our villages of supporters, whether it is our online writing group here, or a caring neighbor, a family member, or a good friend; we really all do have something in our lives to be grateful and thankful for.
I may not always have a big group of family supporters, but I do have friends that have become chosen family. My kids have become such beautiful, loving, caring adults.
They are proving to me daily that generational curses can be broken. Thank God for this!
Live, Laugh, Love with everything you’ve got while you still can! 💜✨ Thank you so much for stopping by here. I truly appreciate and value you all.
I walk virtually every morning. I try to spend part of my time just thanking God for the good stuff. I walk a while, so sometimes I just keep finding more good stuff to thank him for! 😊🙏

Yes! I totally agree we have SO many blessings in our lives! There is so much to be grateful for that we don’t even recognize it all. How about just the fact that I have 10 fingers on this keyboard? Some people don’t have even that. … I came across the following words which don’t necessarily speak to blessings but, hmmm, maybe they do. … “Whatever comes to you, you have the strength, the wisdom, and the courage to handle it. Otherwise, it would not come. Everything that comes to you comes by your own invitation. It is not foisted upon you as punishment by a God outside of you, by a cosmic judge somewhere. It comes by your own invitation, because you have said at a depth of your own being, ‘I am ready to know this challenge and to meet it.'”
Beautifully said!! 🙏🏻💜 thanks so much for sharing your words here. I’ve spent my entire life working to remind myself of this every single day!
