I think that this image stood out to me today as a reminder that everyone is going through their own battles. Starting with yourself and fixing what is wrong in your own life will win that battle.

Today was one of those days where everything felt a little off. I woke up and it was a usual morning of starting my weekend house chores. But as the day went on I felt the anger and resentment of why am I the only one working hard? I had to remind myself to take a step back and realize that one day I wont have those little clothes to wash or the small feet prints across the floor to clean. I wont have a little voice yelling for help down the hallway. I wont hear the laughter from my kids as they play outside, or be able to comfort a child because they fell off a bike and got a scratch. The anger that I felt went away and I just smiled to myself because the years feel long but the days are short that my children will be this small and then I will really miss these days.

I am grateful for an awesome co-worker who appreciates what I do for them. Also so flattered that she went out of her way to show me some attention for my birthday an showered me with amazing gifts.

Grateful that I got to spend another year on this earth! And grateful that my co-workers got me a cake which shows me that they care about me because they went out of their way just for me.

I am grateful today that no matter what happens in life I don't let it get to me and I continue to move forward no matter what obstacle gets in the way.
