I am grateful that I am me, and for all the experiences in my life both good and bad that have contributed to who I am. I am grateful for my friends & family, especially my children, and for my body that allowed me to grow and nurture them, and for the amazing experience of childbirth. I am grateful for my michievous streak and my sense of humor that have no doubt got me through a lot of painful, difficult times. And I am grateful for my therapist and you JP, and the other contributors here, for helping me to get to a point where I can be grateful for these things
