Infertility is awful, what do I have to be grateful for? A whole lot.
The last few days I allowed myself to go down the rabbit hole of feeling a bit sorry for myself. I admit it, I needed to do it, and now it's time to come back out.
I had lunch with some friends yesterday and one story after another reminded me just how much I have to be grateful for--SO much. So for anyone else who may need some help shifting out of the sadness, here are a few great gratitude practices I found--I only did a few of them and I already feel a whole heck of a lot better. I needed to get out of myself and my own wallowing.
"In the midst of the “have not’s” it can be easy to forget the “have’s.” Sometimes the easiest way out of sadness is the path traveled through gratitude.
Make gratitude a daily practice, you may be surprised how quickly this simple shift in focus can change your entire perspective–not to mention the amount of joy and peace you experience.
