Today, I am struggling.

Today, I just want to curl up in bed and read a good book.

Today, I don’t want to deal with housework or to-do lists.

Today, I am flat and tired.

Today, I am procrastinating.

Today, I know I’m not really tired, it’s an excuse to avoid.

Today, I have to push myself to write.

Today, I have no idea what I will say ’till I write it down.

Today, I am looking out my window and feeling grateful for the rain.

Today, I am glad that Karen will be over tonight.

Today, I am glad that I pushed myself to work.

Today, I am embracing the struggles that I face.

Today, I am smiling at myself because as I write the blues are slowly drifting away.

Today, I am grateful that I decided to read some of my old writings.

Today, I learned something about myself.

Today, I am just grateful that I chose to keep going.

Maybe tomorrow I will go back to bed, but not today.

Namaste
