9 am Thoughts
I woke up this morning feeling grateful. You know how easy it becomes to take small things lightly, but today, for whatever reason, I think about all the simple-yet-valuable comforts.
Which I get to enjoy in my life each day. The moment I opened my eyes, I felt the bed embracing me in a warm wrap of comfort. It is such a small luxury that yields immense peace and gives the day off to a calm note.
As I got out of bed, I remembered the clear, running water that flowed at my fingertips. Even something as simple as water is a privilege that I realize not everyone has.
I felt thankful for the opportunity to begin my day refreshed, to drink, and prepare a warm breakfast. Each bite of my meal was like a gift, nourishing and energizing me for whatever the day brings.
These small conveniences - a warm bed, running water, good food - add up, support me day in and day out. This morning reminds me how lucky I am and how often I do not acknowledge these blessings.
Beginning with gratitude makes one feel well-grounded, ready for whatever the day will bring.
