rejoice in the now

"Rather than appreciate where we are, we continually struggle to nurture our dissatisfaction. It’s like trying to get flowers to grow by pouring cement on the garden." - Pema Chodron

In an effort to appreciate where I am right now, here's a list of a few things I'm grateful for this morning:

I woke up today. a miracle in and of itself.

I woke up next to the love of my life, Robbie. what a gift he is to me. every single day.

I have a warm bed.

I have hot coffee to enjoy.

I have nothing to do and no where to be.

the sun is shining.

I have money in the bank and a roof over my head.

I feel inspired and abundant.

I'm able to freely enjoy this day physically, mentally and spiritually.
