Fortuitous


Sometimes we don't give enough thanks.
We don't give enough care.
Or enough love.

So I want to take the fleeting moment to truly appreciate.

I am so lucky.
I know it. I've always known it.

But sometimes I'm blind.
Very blind to all that's going on around me.
And I miss the little sunlight seeping through the crack in the window, just waiting to be opened.

The truth is-
I'm not always incredibly strong,
I'm not always incredibly together,
I'm not always incredibly independent.

You know what though?
I have wonderful people surrounded by me,
who sat down with me when I fell,
picked me back up,
showed me beauty,
and guided me.

And they make me feel as if
I'm just about the luckiest girl in the whole wide world.



Thank you.
