An Attitude of Gratitude

I am growing my gratitude

Cultivating gratefulness like a garden

My intent fertilizes the soil

& regular practice rains down like water

Choosing joy

Doesn’t mean that some days

The sun won’t shine

It means

I will continue to grow

Even when the sun refuses to show

It means resting when I need to

So that I can get back up

& keep on going

Keep on growing

The list of things I have

To be grateful for is endless

& as I reflect

I am overwhelmed

I never thought I would be

Where I am today.
