Thankful to whoever wrote this to remind me to be grateful.
This literally happened to me twice this week.
All the posts I have tried to make this week expressing my feelings; I feel this one sums it up the best.
(Please do not make this political)
So today, let go of Thankful to whoever wrote this to remind me to be grateful.
Choose to be grateful.
I turned my horses out this morning, wishing their paddocks were just a little bit closer so I could have an extra 10 minutes in bed.
I walked down to the ring yesterday, looking to the sky, cursing the rain as it fell.
I complained about the price of fuel today, how was I supposed to pay for that on top of hay, shoes, training and entry fees?
I started to make a plan working towards my next show of the season today and found myself frustrated at the fact that the weather wasn’t cooperating.
So today, let go of the little things and choose to be grateful.
Be grateful that all you see in the sky is clouds.
Be grateful that your house and yard is still standing.
Be grateful that your horse is stood eating hay or out grazing without threat.
Be grateful that you can still ride and enjoy your horses.
Be grateful that you, and your horses, are safe… and pray for those that aren’t. little things and choose to be grateful.
Be grateful that all you see in the sky is clouds.
Bottom line
I have a lot to be grateful for as do we all.
It’s perspective.
It gets hard but it’s harder when we think the decks are stacked against us.
Let’s stick together and really cherish the smallest moments in life.
