I haven’t been writing much about good things lately.
So I will make this post about gratitude and the positive vibes that result from being grateful. They say if you start the day off with appreciating at least three things in your life, your mood and outlook is improved for the rest of your day. (Although it’s nearing the end of my day at this point.) I’m going to try and remember to do that, on top of writing and meditation every morning. Good habits become good lifestyles which lead to happier people.
I am grateful for:
• My dogs. I love waking up to at least one sleeping by my side every morning.
• My job. I don’t want to be a teacher just yet, but I still love having a flexible, fun job that gives me the opportunity to work with kids. It’s such a sense of fulfillment, so I am grateful for this job for teaching me what it means to love your work.
• My readiness of leaving my comfort zone. I knew that many people didn’t like leaving their comfort zone, but I witnessed it today firsthand and it made me appreciate how leaving my comfort zone, trying new things, or meeting new people didn’t scare me. I think it’s necessary to take risks in order to grow and to do that, you have to be okay with the unknown. So I am grateful that my history and experiences have taught me to embrace discomfort and growth.
I want to be better. I want to help other people be better, too.
