My Heart is Opening

It’s easy to be grateful for the blessings in my life

It’s harder to be grateful for the disappointments, tragedies, and loss

Each experience awakens a part of me – when I am willing

I am grateful for the sun, and I am grateful for the rain

They both nourish

When my heart breaks, it breaks open – allowing more love to flow in and out

I give thanks for the moments when I experience what love is not

I give thanks for the moments when I experience what love is

I am grateful.

Gratitude is the key.

My heart is opening.
