I don’t need full clarity to take a kind step forward. 

Today I wake and I’m not quite sure how I feel. A night of vivid dreams left me with a cloudy mind. The hazy, gloomy sunrise isn’t doing much to lift it. My saving grace? Cuddling up with my sweet dogs as we all try to shake off the sleepy feeling.

I’m reminded that not every day will bring peace and clarity. And that’s okay. That’s life. It just means I need to work a little harder to meet myself where I am—and not let the haze take over. Even without clarity, I can still make it a good day. I can search for that one sunbeam that breaks through the clouds. I can still show up for myself and others, just in a quieter way.

Today I’m grateful for comfort wherever I find it. Grateful for my husband, my dogs, and our home. Grateful for the safe space to feel how I need to feel.

What are you grateful for today?
