We can honor the paths of others by not judging them and accepting that not all journeys are the same, and that helps make the beauty of the world.

In myself, it’s become a part of me, as it’s been a part of my daily practice for several years now. And I hope that my practice is a light to others to help cultivate gratefulness in them. Sometimes I help my husband remember to be grateful by helping him see a situation from another perspective.

I woke up to a new day, so that’s a start! I don’t feel like I need to begin anything “anew,” so I’ll just plan to have a good day at work, come home and practice some yoga and see where the rest of the day takes me! Happy Sunday, all 🙂

Mostly myself and my spiritual practice/faith. In my darkest days, I was too fearful and ashamed to talk about what was happening in my life, so no one knew the truth until I escaped those days. These days, I do have my husband, some of my family and a few close friends that I would trust to help me if needed. I’m grateful my days are a lot brighter than they used to be, even if they still get dark every now and then. Lessons every day!

Even though I only got about 4 hours of sleep and have to leave for work soon, I had a great time at a concert last night! Live music is one of the best things, and my husband and I really needed that 🙂

Learning to love myself really was life changing. It was hard because I didn’t think I deserved it, but once I got over that hump, my life shifted in a better direction, and I’m grateful every day for that.

Be here now.

Big green trees. Grass. The sun peeking above the skyline of trees across from our property. A cloud-peppered sky. And an incredible field of okra. What was a quarter acre tilled patch of dirt is now an ever-growing field of okra! I’m grateful for this project and grateful that it is thriving!

Happy Birthday, Brother David! I’m so grateful for the wisdom and love you share with all of us. God bless you today and every day.

Love, spirituality, compassion, hope, consciousness, growth, gratitude.

First thing in the morning. I love the stillness of morning, hearing the birds welcome the day, sun rising, and my routine that sets me up for the day ahead.

I’m so grateful for this vessel that I get to live in. It’s mind-blowing what it does, and I am prompted daily to do my part to take care of it so that it can continue to function well.

Br. David. Sharon Salzberg. Brene Brown. My sister, Amy.

It was Dierks Bentley, a country musician. One of my favorites!

I’m off today, so I slept 10 hours last night! That was our 3rd post-covid concert, and I am always on the lookout for other groups we enjoy!

You can do it, Lauryn. It’s not easy, as I’m sure you know, but you can do. I wish you all the best. The other side of this is a much better place <3

Thank you! And you as well… good to see you here! I feel like it’s been a while 🙂

Oh my goodness, that’s quite a long time to wait for it to be fixed! I guess, at least, it was a good outcome 🙂

Javier, I was both surprised and grateful when they told me I was getting almost double what Kelly Blue Book had my car valued at. Of course, half of it is paying it off, but it still gave me more to spend than I thought. I’m sorry you had to deal with the same thing.
