Gratitude for… YOURSELF!

OK, here’s one we don’t look at too often… what are you grateful to yourself for?

This one can be especially hard.mirror

Uncomfortable.

Provacative.

So I’m going to challenge you to leave me a note in the comments about what you’re grateful to yourself for.

Of course, that’s no fair unless I’m willing to take up the challenge, too. So even though it makes me a little nervous to claim it publicly, I’ll start.

I’m grateful to myself for my dedication to discovering, creating, and walking a fairly unusual path through life. It’s been arduous at times, but also exhilarating. I’m so glad I’ve chosen this path and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’m grateful to myself for being a kind and compassionate person (especially when I can manage to apply some of that kindness to myself!)

I’m grateful to myself for being a fascinated and curious learner. I love learning and it sure has helped keep my life interesting.

I’m grateful to myself for the ways in which I take care of my health. I am far from perfect in this regard, but I’m glad I have a strong commitment to getting back on the horse after every pizza, brownie, and skipped workout.

OK, your turn. What makes you grateful to yourself? C’mon, don’t be shy!
