gratitude

 

There are things in life you may assume will always be the same, that I guess in a sense we do take for granted. Although I do pray day and night, I am human and like many others I do take some things for granted--like the life I live. Yes I am grateful for having loving parents and a loving family but sometimes I don't always acknowledge the times I forget. When I got angry growing up I never thought about other children who had parents to spoil them or make them dinner at night or even wake them up for school when they were too lazy. it always seems to be the simplest things and the most crucial things in life we fail to recognize.

I am grateful for so much I don't even think there is enough room on this blog. However, I can start with a few things; I am grateful for God and the life I live and the wonderful people who inhabit it. I am grateful that I have gotten this far and I'm a college student. I have been through many obstacles and through the grace of God, family, love and perseverance I am the woman that stands in front you all. It is important to thank everything and everyone that has given to you, being grateful. in a stepping stone in life...just one of things you learn to do as you grow.

There is always the good to outweigh the bad n most cases and some of the good that one could always take in is that life is a learning experience. This is VERY significant to me because in order to grow as a person you have to understand you will mess up a time or two; maybe even three or four times. And that is okay, as long as you are trying to do better that third ad fourth time you screw up. I want to take in the preciousness of life, how wonderful life is and all the opportunities you have when you apply yourself. I want to take in the liberty we have as Americans to become whatever our hearts desire...the possibilities are endless.
