Remember to always to grateful for.......

The trials in my life have not been easy. They have bended me and at some points, broken me. Some have made me weak around the edges, but more of them have made me stronger as a whole. All of my trials have made me think...Remember to be grateful for....

Family- They aren't always right and they aren't always perfect, but they are always there.They love unconditionally.

Friends- They are a second family when your family is too far away. They pick you up when you fall down. They open their homes to you and let you drive their cars. They feed you and make sure you still find a smile through the pain. They love you like family.

Food- When you finally have money back in the bank to buy some groceries you feel like a little kid with their first allowance to spend on a piece of candy.

Transportation- Being a 25 year old without her own means of transportation for 6 months will leave you with nothing but a humbling experience. I will forever be grateful for the day I drove my new car home from the dealership. Bawled like a baby the whole way.

A Job- Working for a company full of people that were supportive in my hard times. Having a job that allows me to be financially stable on my own.

A place to live- After three months of my friend, graciously letting me live in her basement, I got my own place. The day I was moving my stuff in I sat on the floor and cried. It was my first step to getting my independence back. It was a new start, a place to make new memories.

Smiling- I spent a very long time not smiling. My face missed it. I think I was able to avoid most of the frown wrinkles that were forming. ;-)

Laughing- laughing is my heart dancing from the inside out. It's fuels me. And it keeps my abs in good shape. hehe

Love- I am grateful for falling in love once and having the opportunity to do it all over again.

Love,


Remarkable Me
