Gratitude comes in many shapes and sizes. Recently I have been participating in Ann Voskamp's monthly Joy Dare, and the process has made me more aware (most days) of the need to find gratitude in all things.
For today I share a list of things I am thankful for, but they are difficult to share.
1. A quote to help me in my relationship with my parents:
"It isn't that they can't see the solution.
It is that they can't see the problem."
- G.K. Chesterton
2. Opportunities to learn about accepting validation and praise.
3. New realizations and the courage to share them here.
4. The birth of a baby who may only live a few short days.
5. A comment made: "you are strong, courageous, brave, and spiritual. you are suffering."

What hard things are you grateful for today?
"If a man had no more to do
with God than to be thankful,
that would suffice"
