Yeah, seems just like any other day.

But no, it’s a unique day.

Today I choose gratitude.

 

I chose the word; ‘choose’ because I am consciously making a choice.

 

There are so many other choices I could make today

Complaints, blame, shame, fear, regrets….

But I choose gratitude

 

I am grateful for my life

I am grateful for today.

Oh no, it’s definitely not perfect; well, maybe not all the time😉

No, I am not a superhero kinda person

But I’m grateful for just ordinary me

Ordinary may seem as an understatement

But really I am just grateful for who God made me.

Whose love inspires me to love.
