Some days I just need to stop and take stock of the little things that make my heart happy. To remind myself that it’s not all bad. To be grateful, despite the weight of depression on my soul. Because the truth is, though sometimes they’re few and far between, there are bright spots in my day. And right here, right now, I am incredibly grateful for:
my ability to laugh through the sadness
the relationship I have with my children
sushi and shrimp tempura
health insurance
my weighted blanket
people who text before calling
the caregivers in my life
my creativity
those jeans that make my butt look good
Work those jeans, baby! And everything else you’ve got going for you.
