I am grateful for the opportunity to catch up with a dear friend after losing contact for approximately 18 months
I am grateful for my daughter, who has walked through the fire with courage, has come out on the other side a strong and capable woman, has found the love of a wonderful young man and is learning what it feels like to live in happiness.
I am grateful for my home ~ my haven ~ and that it still stands......like me.
I am grateful for the bounty of friendships ~ real, true, integrity-filled friendships ~ and knowing I am surrounded by their love, as mine surrounds them.
I am grateful that Lucy, Fred & Ricky have come into my life. They are precious sources of joy to my heart.
I am grateful for my Higher Power hitting me upside the head with a paintbrush.....and the excitement and delight I experience every day on the other side of the canvas! WOW! What a sweet surprise THIS has been!

I owe a debt of gratitude to a co-worker and close friend who dropped what they were doing yesterday to take me to the Urgicare Center and take me home. I was in bad shape. They dropped everything to take care of me.
I owe a debt of gratitude to my roomie and several other friends for watching out for me and
making sure I have what I need to heal.
Their compassion, positive healing energy and help warmed my heart and made me feel cared for.....
usually, it's me taking care of others.
I may not have much to share in my life.... but I have gratitude and love to share for friends like the ones I hold so dear.

I am so grateful for the turn my life has taken, and that I no longer live in poverty and that soon, the finances will be fluid and that I can begin to pay it forward all the good will that was bestowed upon me while I was in such despair.
I am so grateful for the good people in my life, who love me and consider me their friend and even family, who offer me their arms and their hearts, as I offer mine.
I am SO grateful that I have a horse coming to me finally...a relief...I just need to wake up from surgery and get well...

I came home on sun morning at 630am...and as soon as i got out of the car i heard some hooooting.....it was not the usual bird song that i hear in the yard so as im walking up our front stairs and looking at the tree i saw the bigest owl i have ever seen....i decided to hoot back.....the owl humored me for a min and then soared away right in front of my eyes.....it was so very cool that i had to stand there for a min and just be grateful for seeing and hearing that gift....it was an amazing sight and a gift from the universe on the morning of a giant full moon...

i am grateful for so many things in my life, but the one that shines out right now is the new addition to the family: Nickers, a 3-day old orphaned foal. he has added so much joy to life. watching him grow into his body and explore this strange new world gives such happiness, that despite his difficult birth (and the tragic death of his brave mother), he is thriving. his sweet, gentle, and strong spirit inspires!
Tao moves as Tao moves; harmony reigns as the Heavens have smiled down with this wonderful horse!

Having people in my life who love and accept me for me, flaws and all.
For being open to that love and not being afraid to return it.
For having all I need in life, a safe home and enough money. (anyone who says money doesn't matter must never have had to choose between paying bills and putting food in their belly)
For having the boomerang gene. No matter how far I'm thrown, I always come back. ;)
I would like to add.... I am most grateful that my heart is full of joy, excitement, happiness and hope at this time of year. It wasn't always this way for me and I never, ever, take it for granted. ♥

It has been one wild-ass year. (which I do not care to repeat!)
It has been a year of tremendous transition, of suppositions challenged, paths chosen and not, as well as magic in the most unlikely places.
I'm grateful for glimpses of love, for new and genuine friends and their amazing authenticity. For old friendships, steady and true.
For a healthy son. And a healthy me.
Most of all, I'm grateful for my ability to keep the dreams alive.
I still believe in Happily Ever After.
I am grateful to be celebrating this holiday season, with the woman I love.
I am grateful to Rope for his persistence in encouraging me to move to the Bay Area, and to both hy and hys lovely wife for opening their home to me while I figured out my bearings.
I am grateful to those folks who gave me a place to stay, in exchange for work.
I am grateful to Mike for giving me the opportunity to work at the LGBT Center.
I am grateful for the medical care I am receiving at the Native American Clinic.
I am grateful to those who affirm that joy and gratitude go hand in hand.
I am grateful for the love and support I receive each and every day.

Lots of laughter, comfort, peaceful calm, and something I've always wanted ...someone to care about me and for me to care for. I'm grateful for chosen family.

I am so very grateful:
To be finally, just today, back in my home.
To be at the end of a difficult year, transitioning out of a marriage I should have never been in, but that brought me my grandchildren and allowed me to fulfill my dream of parenting a child.
For my grandchildren: For C., 17, who trusts me enough to talk to me about some things that too many kids - young adults? - never talk about with the adults in their lives, and for her willingness to share an obsession with roller derby with her grandmother of all people. For "Chase", 6, my beloved baby butch, the child who has given me the gift of my life's dream of being loved unconditionally by a child. And for B., 4 months, who I don't really know very well yet but who I'm really looking forward to getting to know - and who will certainly need her Abuela to babysit soon.
For the aluminum Christmas tree that belonged to my beloved Granny, under which I opened my gifts for many of my first Christmases through the mid-60's, and under which my grandchildren will open some gifts tomorrow -- and for the comfort in knowing that they had the chance to meet their great-great-grandmother before she passed. I love the thought that something of my Granny might live on in my grandchildren.
For old friends and new ones, both equally precious to me, and the realization just today that my life is surrounded by and deeply infused with love.
For a job that pays the bills, even when money is tight, and that satisfies my soul, even when the bosses try to suck our souls dry.
For a home that is far too big for one person and so can easily welcome and shelter so many who I love.
To finally have the ability to accept the things I cannot change and change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
To realize, much to my delight, that when I'm not letting myself get mired in other people's drama, I'm actually a very easy-going, optimistic, and positive person. And that makes me very, very happy.
For 2013 and all of its possibilities and new beginnings for me.

I am so very blessed, and even tho this holiday was so very hard on me because its the first one without my daughter, I am in awe of how wonderful my life has turned out to be.
I have an amazing fiance whom I love very much.
I have incredible friends and family so very close to my heart.
I have a wonderful home that is paid in full and I never have to worry about being homeless again.
I have sweet loving four legged family members that make my heart soar and my life so much better.
I have a wonderful new shoppe, all my own! I am my own boss and it is so successful even tho it is only 6 months old!
I have my new car, the PT Cruiser! She is a great runner and so very good on gas!
And I have a peace within..my serenity. I lost it awhile back, but it is here again and it is my hope that this year that everyone can attain serenity...

I was just thinking about this today. How grateful I am for my family, in particular my sons. Even though my youngest could stand to be a little more considerate, less self absorbed still I can't complain. It would be better if he were around more but we do spend time talking and texting and we do get together in person now and then. When we do we always make each other laugh. My oldest has consistently, without fail, treated me better than anyone I have ever known, his whole entire life. I'm very fortunate to have his love, care, concern and support. I've always said and I do really mean it, even if tomorrow things took a dramatic turn for the worse, my sons suddenly started hating on me, still I'd have to consider myself fortunate what for how good I've had it all along up to this point. There are a lot of mothers out there, much better moms than me, who have it nowhere near as good as this. I'm grateful I have the children I do.

The last couple weeks my oldest kiddo has been tagging me in posts on FB about how wonderful her mother is, how her mom is her best friend, and even one that acknowledges that even when I struggle she still thinks I'm the best mom.
I am so grateful for my both my kiddos, but this last week I am extra grateful to have my best friend as my daughter.

I am grateful for who I am. For my strengths, and vulnerabilities...for my failures, and successes.
For those who were before me, and in many ways opened the paths throught which I continue my journey today...
For those who are companion during the journey through this temporary life: family, friends, and those erroneously called strangers.
For those who have stayed for a minute, for those who have never leave...
For those to whom, with their false premise of love, I allowed them to hurt me, and for those whom with their love still helping me to heal and grow...
For this emptiness, for this fullness...
For the simple things, many times taken for granted...
For what it was, and for what it will be: Gracias!
And, for the music...thanks...
Disclaimer: while reading the above, remember that skills in the Inglés language are not part of my strengths...For that, I will be grateful to you!
