Gratitude

I stumbled across an interesting question that gave me some blog writing inspo

"What are you grateful for today?"

I have told myself that I will start reflecting on gratitude more this year and so this question seems to have entered my life around the right time.

Today I am grateful for me. Yes, that is right, me.

I am grateful for the person I am the amount of strength I hold as a single individual on an emotional, spiritual and physical level. I have been through a lot over the past few years and I have come out stronger than ever. I can honestly say that I have rarely thought about giving up because I am generally the type of person that goes through with whatever I put myself up to. I have failed. Oh boy, you do not even know how bad I have failed. Not just once.

But I got back up. What is life if we give up after every unpleasant experience or after every moment we spend upset? I am grateful for me because I rose above the hardship and held my chin up high no matter the situation. I am grateful for me because I loved despite not being loved back and I have helped despite not being offered a helping hand.

What are you grateful for?
