My Gratitude Project

I discussed finding gratitude in sadness in my post two weeks ago, and so I thought I would pick up this next post continuing with the theme of gratitude. On January 1, I decided that my word for 2018 would be gratitude. As I talked about in my last post, in spite of the deep sadness that I have been feeling these past weeks, I have also felt this overwhelming sense of gratitude. When I am sad or disappointed, it is so easy for me to focus on all of the things that I don't have and to overlook all of the wonderful things that I do have. It felt like the right time in my life to pay attention to all that I have because I am so incredibly lucky in so many ways and for so many reasons.

Finding Gratitude In Sadness

What I am about to write about is a topic that I never planned to write about on here. This is not something that I wanted to focus my writing on, but I realized that I can’t not write about it. I created this blog to teach myself about accepting and embracing the imperfect, and as usually happens in life, I was thrown a curve ball (two actually), and I am trying to make sense of it all.
