I’m greatful to have a clean and quiet place to live. via /r/gratitude

I recently moved into my first apartment with just my cat and a single very quiet roommate after living with a million kids in a home that was not the cleanest or most peaceful as a result of finally getting out of a super chaotic and shitty situation. I'm also incredibly thankful that my family finally gets to move into a real actual childhood home with some solid ground to finally rest on. It's completely new but not unwelcome. I used to long for moments like these, and I had to steal them during the small hours of the night. Now I get to drink my coffee and have a meal somewhere peaceful and I don't feel the need to hide anymore. I have food I like in my fridge, clean carpet, and a comfy bed, which mean so much to me. I'm very thankful for the opportunity to have this, and I'm thankful that my mother who's worked and struggled her entire life finally gets some peace with a kind man who loves her unconditionally.
