gratitude challenge: day 4

dear negative things:

i was going to itemize you like some posts i've read, but i think that it might just make me sad, which is the opposite effect this exercise is supposed to have, right?

so instead, i'll write to all of you.

thank you for spurring me forward in life, for sometimes giving me that kick in the pants i needed to do what i was meant to do all along, and for sometimes kicking me in a different direction, off the path i was planning on, but onto one that was ultimately better.

thank you for helping me find myself. thank you for helping me find him. thank you for teaching me to appreciate things that i do have, and thank you for teaching me to grow up.
