thankful

I am so thankful today. I am thankful for a fresh start. I am thankful for another chance to live. I am thankful for the great privilege of being happy. I am thankful for my friends, my sisters, my family, my job, my home. I am thankful for the overwhelming reality of my new life. I am thankful that there is always a way out of the hard times that we find ourselves in. I am thankful for our resilience and the strength that we find to hope even when we feel like all hope is gone. I am thankful for the courage that we find to make decisions that are difficult, but life-changing. I am thankful for truth and love. I am thankful for the motivation I feel to be better. I am thankful for the grace that I've been shown and want to share with others. I am thankful for so many things this morning- and surprisingly, I am thankful for me.
