I have been going through a rough couple of months lately. Things at home, work, and this blog have been overwhelming me. I was getting caught up in my problems. The sadness and feelings of being overwhelmed were taking over. I was letting myself settle in to feeling down and unworthy without realizing it. I was listening to my morning affirmations and one of them really resonated with me.
"I am grateful for my life, all the ups and downs and everything in between"
Gratitude is the antidote to sorrow. Starting this blog has been discouraging at times. I want to build a safe and inclusive space for women (outside of social media). A place where we can shed our masks, and be our true selves. A space where we can really put ourselves first and discover the true meaning of self love. A supportive space for true sisterhood. But it's been hard. But in all the hard work, I have to leave space for gratitude. I have to be grateful for the challenges as well as the triumphs.
