Gratitude

 I will talk more about gratitude sometime later on my blog, but for today, I just want to express and practice gratitude, so here I am

I am grateful for my five senses, for the opportunity to witness sunsets and mountains, to smell my mama's perfume and the scent of the earth when it rains, I stand in awe of the music I can hear and the sound of waves on the beach, for the taste of ice cream, specifically the Lotus flavor, I am grateful for being able to feel the sand in my hand and the cold on my face.

I am beyond thankful for my imperfect, unhealed parents, who managed to support me and always provide me with the affection I need despite their brokenness.

I express gratitude today for my friends, who love me and never seek to change one thing in me, they are pure hearts and golden sunshine in my life.

I am grateful for my past relationship, for it allowed my soul to experience true and genuine  love, a love that was based on freedom, acceptance and growth ( I am crying rn hahaha) 

I am thankful for my progress and my strong spirit to stand tall in the midst of change and anxiety.

Finally, I stand in awe, speechless in front of you, My Lord, pouring my heart into your loving arms, grateful for your Holy Spirit that always guides me and protects me.
