I am grateful for my many blessings in life.

I am grateful for the decisions I have made in life.

I am so grateful for the turn my life has taken, and that I no longer live in poverty and that soon, the finances will be fluid and that I can begin to pay it forward all the good will that was bestowed upon me while I was in such despair.

I am so grateful for the good people in my life, who love me and consider me their friend and even family, who offer me their arms and their hearts, as I offer mine.

I am SO grateful that I have a horse coming to me finally...a relief...I just need to wake up from surgery and get well...

I came home on sun morning at 630am...and as soon as i got out of the car i heard some hooooting.....it was not the usual bird song that i hear in the yard so as im walking up our front stairs and looking at the tree i saw the bigest owl i have ever seen....i decided to hoot back.....the owl humored me for a min and then soared away right in front of my eyes.....it was so very cool that i had to stand there for a min and just be grateful for seeing and hearing that gift....it was an amazing sight and a gift from the universe on the morning of a giant full moon...

for the new baby...

i am grateful for so many things in my life, but the one that shines out right now is the new addition to the family: Nickers, a 3-day old orphaned foal. he has added so much joy to life. watching him grow into his body and explore this strange new world gives such happiness, that despite his difficult birth (and the tragic death of his brave mother), he is thriving. his sweet, gentle, and strong spirit inspires!
Tao moves as Tao moves; harmony reigns as the Heavens have smiled down with this wonderful horse!

:moonstars:I am grateful to God and the universe for bringing me the boi who captured my heart, hung the moon, and teaches me everyday what it means to love, and be loved, in every way.......:moonstars:

I am greatful for a home.

I am so very grateful that I actually learned from all those hard knocks I had back in my youth and that I can often see an issue coming before it gets here and move outta the way.

Grateful for the wisdom to know the difference..

I am so grateful this year is almost over. This has been one for the books.

I am grateful for having all I need...therefore I do not want for anything except my family and friends to always be happy.

I am grateful for.....

Having people in my life who love and accept me for me, flaws and all.
For being open to that love and not being afraid to return it.
For having all I need in life, a safe home and enough money. (anyone who says money doesn't matter must never have had to choose between paying bills and putting food in their belly)
For having the boomerang gene. No matter how far I'm thrown, I always come back. ;)

I would like to add.... I am most grateful that my heart is full of joy, excitement, happiness and hope at this time of year. It wasn't always this way for me and I never, ever, take it for granted. ♥

It has been one wild-ass year. (which I do not care to repeat!)

It has been a year of tremendous transition, of suppositions challenged, paths chosen and not, as well as magic in the most unlikely places.

I'm grateful for glimpses of love, for new and genuine friends and their amazing authenticity. For old friendships, steady and true.

For a healthy son. And a healthy me.

Most of all, I'm grateful for my ability to keep the dreams alive.
I still believe in Happily Ever After.

I am grateful to be celebrating this holiday season, with the woman I love.
I am grateful to Rope for his persistence in encouraging me to move to the Bay Area, and to both hy and hys lovely wife for opening their home to me while I figured out my bearings.
I am grateful to those folks who gave me a place to stay, in exchange for work.
I am grateful to Mike for giving me the opportunity to work at the LGBT Center.
I am grateful for the medical care I am receiving at the Native American Clinic.
I am grateful to those who affirm that joy and gratitude go hand in hand.
I am grateful for the love and support I receive each and every day.

I'm grateful to be in the present, to be right here now.

I,m gratefull for the small things, memories and family.

sitting here delightfully tired after a yummy meal and wonderful family time, I am overflowing with Gratitude for my chosen family and how they've made this a very special Christmas. Lots of laughter, comfort, peaceful calm, and something I've always wanted ...someone to care about me and for me to care for. I'm grateful for chosen family.

I am so very grateful:

To be finally, just today, back in my home.

To be at the end of a difficult year, transitioning out of a marriage I should have never been in, but that brought me my grandchildren and allowed me to fulfill my dream of parenting a child.

For my grandchildren: For C., 17, who trusts me enough to talk to me about some things that too many kids - young adults? - never talk about with the adults in their lives, and for her willingness to share an obsession with roller derby with her grandmother of all people. For "Chase", 6, my beloved baby butch, the child who has given me the gift of my life's dream of being loved unconditionally by a child. And for B., 4 months, who I don't really know very well yet but who I'm really looking forward to getting to know - and who will certainly need her Abuela to babysit soon.

For the aluminum Christmas tree that belonged to my beloved Granny, under which I opened my gifts for many of my first Christmases through the mid-60's, and under which my grandchildren will open some gifts tomorrow -- and for the comfort in knowing that they had the chance to meet their great-great-grandmother before she passed. I love the thought that something of my Granny might live on in my grandchildren.

For old friends and new ones, both equally precious to me, and the realization just today that my life is surrounded by and deeply infused with love.

For a job that pays the bills, even when money is tight, and that satisfies my soul, even when the bosses try to suck our souls dry.

For a home that is far too big for one person and so can easily welcome and shelter so many who I love.

To finally have the ability to accept the things I cannot change and change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

To realize, much to my delight, that when I'm not letting myself get mired in other people's drama, I'm actually a very easy-going, optimistic, and positive person. And that makes me very, very happy.

For 2013 and all of its possibilities and new beginnings for me.
