From this day forward, I vow to…

For so long now, I have only looked back at all the situations that have negatively effected me. I have dwelled on what could have been or should have been that sometimes I forgot to see what was currently happening. I failed to fully see what life has blessed me with in the current moment. I keep choosing to live in the past, asking myself why things happened the way they did. I always have been the person to ask the question, “why?” I have always been curious to the question that usually is left unanswered. Wanting to know the answer to this simple question is one of the reason, I believe, I have allowed my mind to veer off track of what needs to be though about and back to what needs to be left behind. Sometimes, I loose hope and sight of what is in front of me.

From this day forward, I vow to acknowledge what makes me grateful in the present moment. I promise to hold myself accountable every single day, to take a brief moment to meditate on all the things and people I am bless to have in my life. These are the things that make me whole and make me who I am. Through the practice of mindful gratitude I will be able to find myself and my true calling again and not feel so empty and lost….
