Grateful for my life

I am full of emotions tonight, mostly all good.

We live in particularly precarious times right now, but I was able to accomplish a great deal today. Things I won't have to worry about later.

I took the last two months off from work to find myself and figure out what's going on in my life. I return to work on Monday, July 14. (I am very aware and grateful I have the privilege to take this time off).

I think of where I was mentally and emotionally when I left work in May. I am so unbelievably grateful for what I have and what I can do. I live in a fabulous city, even though we are under siege by ICE. It breaks my heart, but I have to look at the good. I bought a sweatshirt that says "Find the Good." More than anything, I am searching out and finding the good.

I am pacing around my apartment tonight (in a good way) with a glass of wine, thinking how well I have it. How much I have struggled through and accomplished in my 43 years on this earth.

Things aren't fantastic in the world right now, but they will get better no matter what your beliefs are.

Thank you for letting me ramble on here tonight. I hope everyone is safe and sound for the evening.
