This week has been full of gratitude for me, and I wanted to share why. With all that’s going on in the world today and in our day to day personal lives, it’s easy to get overwhelmed sometimes. I must admit, over the past few weeks I’ve been feeling more tired than usual, which I still attribute to daylight savings time and losing that one hour of sleep. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it 🙂

Seriously speaking though, this is the time of year when the weather starts to warm up and I start to feel a little burnt out and ready for a break. They don’t call it Spring Break out of coincidence. Not seeing an opportunity for relieve in sight, I initially started to be a bit discouraged, and then I started focusing more on the positive aspects as to why I was so busy. Once I refocused and realized how blessed I am to even have an opportunity to be busy chasing my dreams and doing the things I love, my thoughts turned into being grateful.

There’s so much to be thankful for, so it’s easy to smile! This week has been a great reminder for me to not lose sight of my blessings, no matter what the circumstance. If you’re dealing with something similar, I hope it serves as encouragement for you too.
