Grateful for Gratitude

For the past week or so I've been feeling so much gratitude for everything in my life and everything and everyone around me. Maybe these feelings have something to do with the month of November, haha, I'm not sure! I am, however, grateful for this constant feeling of gratitude. 

I'm finding that I have nothing to complain about! Sure, there are probably things I could ask Heavenly Father to help me out with, but when I begin to ask, lately all I can express is my thanks.

It's such a blessing that we are able to feel so many different feelings, and still come out grateful. We go through hurt, loss, grief, regret, anxiety, confusion...and we also have experiences that bring happiness, peace, comfort, kindness, love, hope, understanding. All of these feelings are necessary and inevitable. 

I am grateful for all moments in my life. I'm grateful for every trial that has come my way, for each one has taught me about who I am and who the Savior Jesus Christ is. I'm grateful for every happy moment I've had in my life as well. Those stick to my bones and remind me just how blessed I am. 

I suppose I'm simply reminiscing today on memories good and not so good, and I'm seeing that all were necessary....necessary to bring me to feel such gratitude. 

Take a moment to reflect on the things that have occurred in your life, and as you do, recall how each experience has changed you. Are you grateful for those changes? You should be :) It's all for a reason. Let every moment make you better. There is so much to be thankful for!
