I am so very grateful for d18 and the example that she sets for me. I am grateful for my health and the ability to keep on through exercise and appropriate eating. I am thankful to be employed so that I can provide for the needs of my family.
And I am most grateful for the strength that God has given me to take the steps needed to go through what I am going through so that I may learn and grow from it.

It's time for me to start changin' the way I look at the world......and at myself. ~James Howlett aka Wolverine
Grateful for my health Grateful For the joy d6 provided me yesterday. She is an absolute angel and every moment with her is simply pure joy. Grateful for the example and lessons my d18 shares with me. How the heck did I get so lucky in life to have 2 of the absolute most perfect little girls come to me to be their father.
God knew I would need a "WHY" and strength to get through this most challenging time of my life. They are the WHY that drives me and the love they share with me is the strength to do what I must.

Grateful for my 2 wonderful daughters. Sure this sounds like a broken record from me, but the joy peace and life lessons they continue to provide me. How can I be anything but grateful?
Grateful for my health and mind. they helped pull me through the darkest days of my life. Oddly enough, I owe D18 for this as well. 2 years ago, she convinced me I needed to make a change with my health. I was in peak shape when this all went down. Now....I am stronger and the mind is sharper than before.
For my renewed faith in God. MWD says it exactly like it happened for me. When the BD hit, I ran to God. the very same that I had shunned for more years than I can be proud to say. And now I know of his goodness and grace because I would not have made it without him.
Gratitude is a miracle when practiced daily. I encourage any that read this to take 2 minutes to share their gratitude with us. What do you have to lose?

I am reposting this wise thought from my friend Ripe. Life energy and the control we have can make the difference in overcoming the darkness........

When you learn how to be curious about what is going on inside of you, you discover the ability to meet whatever you are experiencing without turning it into a problem. You can then give the energy that was bound up in your struggles the attention and the spaciousness it needs in order to let go. This brings you back to the free-flowing aliveness that you truly are – the field of your being. In order to be curious about what is going on rather than always trying to control it, it is important to know that your life is for you. Life is not just a random series of events that happen because you did it right or you did it wrong. Instead, it is an intelligent unfolding that is revealing itself to you all day long, bringing you step-by-step from unconsciousness to consciousness. Or as Eckhart Tolle says, “Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.”
