I get stuck
in my thoughts,
they circle around
and tell me I'm no good.
Around
And
Around
A
Round
STOP!
And I remember
To count my blessings:
A Soccer game huddled under blankets
Hot tea
Comedians on tv
Full homes
Silly boys
Ponies
A@@ kicking workouts that make me feel strong
Mini trips "up north" to check on babies and mamas
Bright eyed smiling Amish babies
Sister time
A not so slimy but still frozen pool
Sunshine
Notes left in the counter
Serving others
Singing loud
Couch naps
The weight of a newborn sleeping on my chest
A friend's successes as an author
Letters from bootcamp
A day off
A job that I love
Dinner with my mama
Hour long phone call with a friend
Words
Love says STOP!
And Grace
Grabs
Tight
Shouts
Shakes
Whispers
And I am once again in awe of how, even though I don't deserve it, Grace is everywhere.
And maybe...
Just maybe
I should show myself a portion of the grace I give to others.
