there’s so much to be grateful for
I just don’t know where to begin
I’m grateful for knowing God
not in a surface way
but in a deep, profound way
I’m grateful for my beautiful kids
how they make decisions
apart from codependency
I’m grateful for my wonderful job
that feels like a way of life
except that I clock in and out
I’m grateful for this home
the imperfections
and the perfectness
I’m grateful for my mind
that it’s set in the right direction
and thinks soundly
I’m grateful for my Raiders car
that after 253,000 miles
it’s still going strong
I’m grateful for each moment of the day
how it happens right on time
but unexpectedly
I’m grateful for emotions
and that I’m not judged by them
or for having them
I’m grateful for transparency
that I no longer have to hide within myself
or lie to make me greater
I’m grateful for a lot of things
but most of all for God
because He’s made me complete
