Day 6 – Saying YES to GRATITUDE

Last week at Thanksgiving I felt something that was new. It was a very deep and grounded awareness of my gratitude about my family. That may seem silly to many at first but for me the reason it is so monumental is because in the past 30 years there has been so much sadness about my family relationships that I often would find myself wishing for something better or compare my family to what I observed when I went to visit my friends’ holiday celebrations for dessert.

It always felt great to be able to have conversations with my friends and their parents … something that has not happened with some members of my family without feeling judged or put down or ignored in some way.

So it felt and still feels so wonderful to notice and feel the gratitude for what is. When I began writing these “Say YES to ME” post several days ago one of the things that I “hoped” for was feeling gratitude for everything by the end of December!

It appears that I am well on my way!

Love and Light!
