Gratitude

Today I have been thinking a lot about gratitude. I have had some pleasantly unexpected things happen over the last couple days and the feeling of utter appreciation and gratitude I am experiencing has filled my day with such bliss...I can't even describe it. I have had unexpected gifts given to me by loved ones, both materialistically speaking and more importantly, emotionally speaking. I have had those within my circle show me  that I am appreciated, thought of, cared for and understood. I have been given support, courage and strength in a time of struggle for me and there are no amount of words in the world that could adequately describe how much that truly means to me. I have been given tokens of appreciation and affection, telling me that all I do for those around me does not go unnoticed and that they are grateful for what I do for them. I have had kind words, loving touches and comforting embraces that have helped me to steel myself against the urge to beat myself up over what I deem are my own flaws and insecurities. I know I don't realize it nearly often enough and I know I don't express how much these little things truly mean to me very well, but I want everyone who reads this to know how eternally grateful I am for this moment of clarity and to all who have helped me to be able to see it so well for the magick that it is. Thank you. I appreciate you. You honor me.
