The Magic Day 27

Count your blessings. Make a list of ten blessings. Write why you’re grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say thank you, thank you, thank you, and feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.

Thank you thank you thank you!

I am so happy and grateful for the teacher I found,

Thank you so for the challenges that have brought me to this place,

because I am not so dependent now, or so phobic either.

Thank you so for the changes that have brought me to being able to enjoy reading again, I think,

because I wanted that back so much.

Thank you thank you thank you!

3 things about me I’m grateful for:

·       my compassion and decision to always try to be more and more kind

·       my ability to bounce back every time so far

·       my humor. EVERYONE tells me I am so funny. I am not trying to be  But it is apparently something about the way I talk… I’m glad for that.
