I Am Thankful

I am thankful for days that are hard, difficult and painful, because what comes from them is appreciation, healing and love.

I am thankful for time spent with old friends and making new ones.

I am thankful for the people that challenge, inspire and maybe frighten me just a little bit because they push me ever onwards towards my goals.

I am thankful for Sunday naps spent on leather couches, sisters and dogs piled up in drooling, snoring heaps.

I am thankful for pens of horses and days of rain.

I am thankful for hopes and dreams and wanting to prove that the impossible is actually possible.

I am thankful for every day, no matter how hard, bitter, joyful or just plain freaking weird they are, because every day is a new chance to begin again. To try harder, to learn to love again, to forgive and to attack the challenges that life has thrown at me with renewed courage and strength.

I am thankful. Tomorrow is a new day.
