Gratitude

Today has felt to be the perfect time for taking a moment to be grateful.

Living a life governed by thinking, analysing and taking or trying to take logical and objective decisions, these rare moments when I can rely solely on my feelings are particularly precious to me. There are some tears building up in my eyes, but they are ones of gratitude and serenity this time.

It appears that something out there in the universe rewards those courageous enough to be vulnerable. I am amazed by how little one needs to feel meaning and happiness. It becomes even more interesting to ponder over how this ‘little’ is actually so much that there can be no price tag to attach to it.

I find there is nothing more valuable in this world than the people one meets and the moments they live together. There is a certain magic to it. Today I am convinced once again that as random as things might seem at times, there is a secret order to that randomness, one which comes together in the most unexpected ways.

Today I realise that my deciding to surround myself solely with people whom that something inside of me had told me to- it was the best thing I could do for myself. No logic was involved. Some told me to be wrong, and I didn’t care. I am grateful to have done it.

The universe conspires to give you what you want by means we rarely understand. It is conditioned by knowing what you wish for and by daring to say it to the world.

It has been ages since I cried of joy. There is more than one person I can thank for it, but today I feel bold enough to say ‘thank you’ to myself.
