Headaches (which I have right now)
because without them, I wouldn't know the joy of a clear mind
Cuts & Bruises
because they remind me that though it hurts, I can also feel the soft touch of my true love
Hunger
because when I am hungry, I know how lucky I am to have food to fill my belly and remember
those that do not have food
Sickness
because when I am sick, I know it is only temporary and I will return to good health
Silence
because when it is quiet, I can quiet my soul and give thanks for all my blessings
Mistakes
because when I make mistakes it reminds me that I am just human, an imperfect, mystery of a
creature, one that seeks love, comfort, and validation, just like everyone else.
...lastly I give thanks for
Fear
because without it, I wouldn't have attempted to conquer it and discover that behind that fear lay my
true aspirations, true love and happiness.
