phillip coupal – sweet juicy heart

Today…

My gratitude extends to the darkness.

• Without the darkness I would no be able to see the light.
• Without my looking at that which I do not want I would not be able to create that which I so desire.
• Without my experiencing the pain I would not be able to experience the bliss.
• Without imprisonment I would never be able to experience the ecstatic quality of freedom.

“I have to keep facing the darkness. If I stand tall and face the thing I fear, I have a chance to conquer it. If I just keep dodging and hiding it will conquer me.”  ― Mary Pope Osborne

Today…

Grateful for my ability to be grateful.

There is something that changes inside of me as I set myself into the direction of feeling gratitude.

• I soften
• I feel less darkness creeping in
• I feel lighter
• I feel more inspired
• I feel life can be worth living.

Today if I only feel gratitude to breath and be here on the earth I will have lived as fully as I am able.
