When all else fails, Gratitude.

When life throws you a curve ball that knocks you off your feet, Gratitude.

When you feel like hands have plucked out all the petals and you’re just a puddle of crushed petals on the floor… Gratitude.

Gratitude is an action. It’s something within reach. It’s doable. It’s that strange little vial of glowing substance that we can reach for when there’s nothing else.

It’s a collection of light that never dims, words and phrases that still hold true, even when we say them from the floor.

Gratitude.

I’m thankful for photographs, like this one. <3

Today I got out the old book, the One Thousand Gifts book I made but haven’t written in for a while.


Today it’s good to think of blessings within reach.

Words add light where there was none. Gratitude IS within reach.
