I woke up feeling very grateful today. I woke up thinking about how easy my life is. I woke up knowing that everything horrible that had happened to me as a child was only so that I could appreciate today. You have to be surrounded in darkness to learn to surround yourself with light. Since so much happened TO me I was able to control what I've made happen for me since.
I've owned a house since I was 22. I had been around the world by 20. I'm 27 and am having the perfect set of children, a boy and a girl, with the most perfect partner ever. We support each other and never fight. We encourage each other and never point fingers. He is the best daddy to our children that could ever be possible.
I'm lucky that when bad things happened to me my mind was inherently strong enough to overcome and not get permanently bogged down. I've never had a dangerous addiction or felt the sting of extreme poverty or homelessness because my parents never let me. My parents took care of me physically, mentally, and emotionally just the way it needed to be.. I'm intelligent and self reliant. I'm a winner!
So I am grateful that this is an easy life where I decide what happens. And I'm grateful to all of you that have been able to share my humble piece of the universe.
Thank you.
