50. Grateful
A little appreciation goes a long way.
Just a small word but it brings joy to someone and is better than a million sentences.
Every breath a new blessing,
Yet our complains are never ending.
Always thinking about what's to happen next, we forget to live in the moment and appreciate it's beauty.
For once, we need to try to be thankful for everything we have and all the moments we got to experience and the memories we got to make.
The tiny little moments of joy and the serotonin they provide, are often overlooked.
The worry of what's going to happen next, limits us from experiencing the joy of being in the moment.
The stress clouding our minds prohibits us from understanding the meaning of actually being grateful for countless things we're blessed with.
The continuous competition of life, making us ignorant of what we've accomplished.
A new goal each day, not really giving the satisfaction it was supposed to after accomplishment.
The little things that we take granted for, has almost become routine.
Like the sunrise and the refreshing feeling it gives combined with the fresh gentle morning breeze. Giving us the lesson that even the darkest of nights come to an end.
The rain cleaning our souls, purifying us, giving us an opportunity to start over again.
The stars on a dark starry night, reminding us we're not alone. Letting us know that a little light is all we need to lit up the sky. Making us feel at home and feel safe.
The sun set, leaving a mysterious calming feeling that awakens our soul. Preparing us for the dark unpredictable night ahead.
If only we noticed these small moments of ecstasy and take pleasure from it and just relish each second for what it is.
If only we we're a little appreciative, a little more grateful, then maybe we wouldn't complain as much.
Maybe our problems wouldn't seem so huge.
The world, moving at a fast pace is dragging us with it, and we get dragged along foe the fear of not wanting to be left behind.
But the least we can do, is appreciate what we have before it's too late.

A/N: Be kind to people, you don't know how much the smallest act of kindness can do for someone. Appreciate the people around you and they things they do for you. And every once in a while self reflect and be grateful for everything you have. Your life may not be perfect but there's always someone out there who can only wish they live the way you do. And just because someone else has it worse than you, does not invalidate your problems. And I'm in no way saying that you're problems aren't valid because other people have it worse, all I'm saying is, be grateful for whatever you have. You never know when it's all going to be taken away from you.
Take everything one step at a time and do it at your own pace. Don't occupy yourself with more than you can handle and don't be so hard on yourself.
Thank you for reading!
