On this Friday


A whole lot of stressful scenarios intertwined this week. Part inevitable, part unforeseeable. Ups and downs. Highs and lows. Life happened, and regardless I'm always grateful for it. But here on this Friday, Monday seems months ago. Because we've come so far, and because the days have felt so long.

And I'm feeling grateful for:

Health. {Whether it's here or not} 


Sleep. {A good night's sleep and a new day can make everything so much better. But I'm still forever wishing my babies would give me more precious sleep.}  

Time & trust {It doesn't feel like I'm getting much time right now, but I trust that things will improve.} 

Listening {I listened to my heart and head this week. I'm glad I let my heart win.}

Comfort {That my arms and love can offer so much.}

Listeners {I was listened to with empathy and patience this week, and it made a beautiful difference ~ thank you xx. I'm always so very conscious of how I listen and how I could listen better. It felt so good to be heard.} 

Words {Spoken and written. When I didn't get to write this week I spoke, and read too.}   


xx

What are you most grateful for this week?

  2. Sounds like your week was similar to mine - and here, at the end of it I feel very similar too.
    I hope you have a lovely refreshing weekend to reset for the week ahead.
