I am grateful. the fog is lifting.

I have lived in a dissociative fog of pain and confusion for so long, It really makes me appreciate every little bit of light that I see.

I am grateful today for so many things.
  • I am grateful - for the first time in my life - that I am me. I accept myself just the way I am. I have strengths and weaknesses that are truly my own, I have a light side and dark side, and I don't judge myself anymore.
  • I am grateful for two jobs that I LOVE. Monarch is amazing and empowering and fun. Riverland is amazing and empowering and challenging and fun!
  • I am grateful for the beautiful people I work with.
  • I am grateful for the most amazing friends in the world.
  • I am grateful for my soulmate. Igal is my dream come true.
  • I am grateful to be alive.
  • I am grateful for Nolwenn's grateful friday blog! http://inner-voices.net/blog/2011-08-19/gratitude-friday-08192011/
School starts in three days. I am four weeks into my doctorate class (1/2 way) and half way through the program. Two more years to go. I am right where I want to be in my life.
