I’m introducing a new posts category for cultivating a grateful heart.
These posts will just be short little snippets of gratitude.
Everyone has struggles, and those struggles are real and valid, though always context-dependent. I have plenty of struggles right now too, but I know that in this life I also have many, many blessings. Fresh water, access to safe food, access to safe, clean water for my daughter’s formula, access to formula in the first place…the list goes on.
I am not someone who believes in hiding or downplaying life’s challenges and nor do I believe in constant positivity.
I do believe that there is a way to balance being real and acknowledging struggles with an awareness and appreciation for blessings, and that’s what I intend to do here with my Grateful Heart posts.
