Giving Thanks
We all have things 
 from our past 
 that we regret, 
 things in the present 
 which cause anxiety 
 and things from the future
 which generate fear.
 When experiencing these feelings
 we can focus on the regret, anxiety and fear, 
 or we can shift our focus
 and give thanks. 
 We can give thanks 
 for the lessons learned, 
 the gifts developed, 
 the understandings gained.
 Like everyone I have been 
 through my share of challenges, 
 but I am remembering 
 to give thanks.
 It doesn’t mean those 
 challenges were easy
 or pleasant
 or that I want to 
 go through them again.
 It simply means 
 I do not regret the 
 times I was shamed
 because they taught me
 to be compassionate.
 It is not about the challenge, 
 it is about how 
 we move through it
 and our ability to 
 give thanks
 in all situations, 
 past, 
 present
 and future.
100% our donations go to support our ability to provide low and no cost offerings to those seeking to grow and evolve spiritually.
