Sometimes life feels beyond stressful. It could be one thing (work\/family\/friends\/life, or even multiples- it weighs heavily, it builds up, it all seems to be too much. Even the littlest things can be so darn heavy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My question for you in this moment, is… what are you grateful for? I had countless conversations with my mom that usually ended with this question. She would listen to the grocery list of complaints, and then ask… “What are you grateful for?” (She would be so proud that I am sharing this with you now)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This doesn’t in any way negate the stress you feel, the sadness, or whatever you feel. It just offers an opportunity to balance and see the situation a little differently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I pulled this card today- it struck me that even though I am feeling quite overwhelmed by life, obligations, and a variety of heavy situations; I am not only allowed, but encourged to feel great joy. I have so much to be grateful for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My gratitude is for the simpliest things today- the cold water I am drinking, conversations with my children, making a lunch date with a friend, a safe home to live in (that also has air conditioning so I can breathe in this heat\/humdity), music that makes me want to dance, and … well, you get the idea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life can be so darn heavy- but also, gratitude inspires joy. I hope that you find a way to feel the greatest of joys today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

sending you so much love, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
