So here I am. I am trying to find a moment of gratitude. I have to try to list 3 a day so I can reflect on these when I am feeling down. It will help me focus on the positive instead of all the negative and one of them must be about me. This is a hard thing for me. I have been bashing myself for the past 32 years but I have to find something so let me think about this.
First of all today I got to walk my daughter to and from school. She was not embarrassed of me at all and instead talked to me as I was one of her best friends and not her mother. She giggled with me and even had fun playing in the rain with me. Her friends even enjoy my company. I know most preteens are embarrassed of their folks but I am pretty blessed that she loves me.
Another good thing that happened to me and my son finally had a full week where he behaved in class. He wasn't even supposed to be in the first grade and now here he is making giant strides and keeping up with his class. This continues to show me that I am an incredible mother.
The final thing for today is the most important thing of all. I am an incredible person. I am not materialistic. I am nonjudgmental and I am very helpful. I have been through a lot in my life and I am still alive and kicking. Many people could not get through what I have and still be standing strong. I am learning to love myself again and find the joy in life. I know if I keep doing this daily then I will retrain my thoughts to be positive again.
