Thankfulness


I have realised that no matter how difficult it was, every small step to recovery, overcoming abuse or whatever the situation, I stopped to be thankful to my Maker to helping me overcome the specific hurdle. Life has daily challenges, whether we are vicitimized by crime to dealing with any sort of pain, we have to be so grateful for being able to see the sun rise again. I am grateful that I got to be the person I am and not be the bitter woman many thought I might turn into when I was angry with the world, unable to forgive and unable to be thankful for the wonderful life I have. Small wonders might be the most significant but we are unble to see it because we are consumed with our situation and ourselves. It is easier to let go than to hold onto something that can make us a fruitless individual, bitter and angry. Try being thankful. I wake up everyday and thank my Maker for ten things and then start and day to overcome all my hurdles.
