Feeling grateful

I'm feeling pretty grateful for things in my life right now. There have been lots of ups and downs these past few years. I tend to get very upset and frustrated with myself for not doing more all the time and feeling extreme guilt for it.

I may not be in a relationship or have my dream job, but that's ok. I got time to work on those things. I've got a good thing going right now. I have good paying job, an adorable adopted cat, and lots of great hobbies that I have the time to work on, especially painting 🖼.

So yeah, there will be times when I feel like everything is falling apart or that I'm scared of being alone, but things are pretty fine and dandy. I hope that I will be able to look back upon these days/years of my life with gratitude and as a time of learning.

@diplomaticWest1394 it's great to hear how you view things, your perspective is refreshing.

True things may not be the best and you may not be where you want to be but you've got time to work on it and you have a lot of amazing things now, wish you and your kitty well 💙

Dear West,

I can relate to your share. There are times we wonder whether we will achieve our goals, be as happy as others, or be happier than we were yesterday. All I can say, these doubts do not devalue you nor make you less worthy than others. I see a person who is trying their best to heal and move forth. Pause if you need to. Rest if you must. We will be here rooting for you! heart
