being Grateful..

As human beings, it takes a lot or sometimes a little for us to be grateful for what we have in our lives today. We spend so much time seeking, trying to get to the next step in whatever we are trying to achieve, that we forget about today.

The other day after dropping the little one at the daycare and the oldest one at school, I was just driving along listening to some music and I smiled.. it had been a while since I have truly been happy inside, don't get me wrong I am by no means depressed nor sad. I am just busy, busy being a mom, busy  being a business owner, busy running a household, busy being a sister, busy being a wife..that I forget to be grateful.

Grateful to have the little one here with me after surviving an earthquake.. grateful that my family is okay back home.. grateful that even though I am not rich, I get to do what I want with my life. I am happy, healthy and grateful that even if life is sticking it to me right now I am sticking it back to life..

So what are you thankful for in your life?

I am grateful for my 1 yr old who keeps me anchored when life threatens to bash me against the rocks. I am thankful for wonderful bloggers who take the time to visit Marlie and Me and leave nice comments! : )
