Grateful for the memories. Grateful for the tears. Grateful for the lesson. Grateful for time to reflect but not dwell.

Now step by step I assimilate what I have learned. Don’t give up. Ask for help. Check up on  each other. Move forward.

Today  is a marvelous day. Sun is shining. Birds are singing. Open my  eyes. Open my ears. Heal my soul.

The laughter hasn’t died. I laughed so hard at the talent show last night.

Step by step. Inch  by inch. Grateful for today.
