AS I WAS GOING TO SLEEP I FELT BLESSED FOR ALL THAT I HAVE. I LOVE THIS THOUGHT DESPITE THE STRUGGLES FEARS, AND CHALLENGES THAT DAILY SURROUND US ITS GOOD TO BE HERE, ITS GOOD TO BE ALIVE, ITS GOOD TO EXPERIENCE ALL THAT LIFE OFFERS- THE GOOD THINGS AND THE BAD, THE TRIUMPHS AND THE TRAGEDIES, THE JOYS AND THE VICISSITUDES. ITS GOOD TO BE HERE EVEN WHEN ITS BAD TO BE HERE, BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN WE LEARN AND GROW THE MOST.
