Practicing

As part of stepping from the shadow into the light I am practicing having a more positive outlook, even when it doesn't come natural, or when I don't feel positive. I am trying really hard to be grateful for what I have. I take the roof over my head and the food I eat for granted, when there are so many who don't have these privilidges. I have friends, I get on with my family, I am loved by an amazing husband. All of these things are a blessing that I don't take for granted. I am loved by the creator, who also provided the means of my salvation. Amongst these biggies there are many smaller blessings within my life. When I start thinking about what I would like to have, I overlook all I do have, the privilidged life I have. Since trying to have a more positive outlook I have found that I have been in a better head space. The last eight days or so I have also been in better health. I don't like it when I have dips, but I am thankful that I know what to do to help myself get better. I still have a way to go to back as well I was in June, but I will work on, I will be positive, and I will be grateful for what I have.
