Today I am grateful for my health. While it is no where near perfect, I am mobile and I am still keeping my blood sugar under control 🙌 so that is already a lot to be grateful for.
My weight has not improved yet but I know I will get there. When and how you ask? Well I guess I will get there when I am ready to. For now I will continue to be grateful for all that I have and love myself as I am.
What I do know is that when the weight leaves, I will be locking that darn door and throwing away the key!
Thanks for joining me on this little journey. Until tomorrow…au revoir!
Abundance is a mindset that attracts everything you need and desire to you. This is a lesson that I am very grateful to have learned this year.
2023 has been a year of abundance. I would like to believe that it is because I made a greater effort to nip the scarcity mindset I have had all my life and started believing that I will always have more than enough and that I deserve, and am worthy of, the best of everything I desire.
I only realised last year that I had never believe this about myself. It is not easy to change such a long held belief but it is not impossible either and I have only just begun. Imagine what lies before me!
This year, I was finally appointed to the role that I have wanted for years! I am so thrilled and very grateful. I won a competition through my bank that basically covered my petrol bill for the second half of the year. How’s that for the Universe having my back! I received the biggest bonus I have ever received this year! I believe that this was God ensuring that I would make through this year with a lot less financial stress than I have been experiencing.
These are just a few examples of all the unexpected financial help I have received this year. I believe that because I believed that I would have more than enough, I opened the door for God/Universe to deliver to that belief. May I never forget this awesome lesson that I learned this year. Thank you God!
This year I have had a lot to celebrate but life has also thrown a few challenges my way. I am grateful for these challenges though as I’ve learnt a lot about my perception of myself and the people I interact with. Mostly I am grateful to God for hearing my cries and sending me help whenever requested.
I am especially grateful for all the help I have received with getting my son through his first year of grieving for his dad. Thank you to my friends (old and new) and family for listening when I needed to vent, for your prayers for my child and for your guidance.
I have had to make changes in order to give him the space to find his own way through his anger and grief. I have had to accept that sometimes my behaviours were not helping him at all and so I had to stop some of them to bring about a change in his behaviours. I am amazed at how quickly he has learnt to recognise when his behaviour hasn’t been optimal and he needs to stop and pivot.
He is such an amazing kid. I am truly blessed to be to his mum.
