My Coach helped me find clarity on my business purpose while showing me compassion.
Her actions immediately brought me clarity by diminishing chaos and disbelief I had in myself. It was the same emotion of a mother lovingly telling her hurting child "there, there, it will be alright" although she did not use those words. Our time together nurtured our bond .

When I was getting in bed last night after a long power outage and the power came back on and we had lights, heat and warm water!
It reminded me how fortunate I am to be able to have those things.

I felt poorly this morning, and my husband rushed to buy me coke as it tends to help my upset stomach. The thought almost helped me more than the coke itself.
Little things mean a lot.

I am thankful that the lamppost in front of my bedroom window has been out for a couple of days! The lamppost has the same wattage as the ones next to the freeways so VERY BRIGHT! It almost feels like I live in the countryside with its sparse lights at night. It is soothing and takes me back in time and a lot of happy memories comes to mind.

I felt grateful for the opportunity to help my neighbor when she was stuck in a financial pinch. Days before I had the privilege's of an increase on my credit card and was easily able to help with no burden to me.
I felt on purpose. The exchange of words she and I engaged in before the transaction was that of a coaching session in which I was able to bring her from chaos to calm which satisfied my sense of purpose and reminded me I was born to be a healer of the hurting.

I feel grateful for a piece of craft my daughter made in second grade with the letters LOVE on. She made it for us for Valentine's Day almost 2 decades ago and to this day it is my most treasured piece on display on this particular day. It reminds me about my daughter, happy memories and the effort she put into it when she made it. It is a heirloom that will always hold a speciel place in my heart.

My friend sent me a surprise present to celebrate my new hobby. It was such a warm feeling to realise that someone had spent their time and money to put a smile on my face. I felt grateful and itching to pay forward.
Because of you, I laugh a little harder, cry a little less, and smile a lot more!

My friend David, who departed this earth just days ago, was a wonderful housemate to me and several others now three decades ago.
He helped make the fellowship strong and playful in the house. He was the grocery shopper for our vegetarian household because he was the only one who had a car amongst us. He was enthusiastic about people and about music and about art, in his enthusiasm was infectious. In the last few days since learning of his grave condition, the housemates and I have been exchanging email remembrances with each other and his widow. Amidst the sadness in mourning our loss, remembering him and his joviality and kindness has brought me joy.

I received great news from my auntie that her cancer test was negative. It was such a relief and a reminder how fragile life is and how lucky I am to have her in my life.
Celebrate every moment of your life. In one memorable day, you will be gone. Lailah Gifty Akita

It's the technology that enable me to have a life like what I am living. I don't have to compare the life situation of other people in old times with my current one. Just comparing my life with that when I was young.
Now, I can learn science and technology whennever I want and I benefit a lot from this learning. For example, I could apply those psychology knowledge and practice and keeping on doing those really make a change to my life.

A dear friend of mine thanked me for my friendship. When I checked my inbox this morning I was blessed with her kind words. I felt a pleasant feeling of happiness when I read her kind and sincere words. But I get a second chance to feel the happiness radiate through my body now when I am writing about it. I am blessed with this invaluable friendship and grateful to have her in my life.

A friend wrote me a gratitude letter for being their friend, and read it to me. It was so beautiful and so emotional and reminded me how precious it is to share this connection.
True friends are never apart, maybe in distance, but never in heart.

It is the simplest pleasures that eludes the treadmill of daily day chores. However, this journey obviously is a method to wake me up and be more alert. However, apart from the obvious things to be grateful for, smaller and more insignificant experiences comes into the foreground and enrich my daily life in profound ways. With consistency even tinier, invisible things or feelings, that elude me at this point will reveal themselves to me like Pandora's box. I am grateful for this epiphany that will always be a part of my spirituel life.

A lovely dinner with friends. I've been feeling pretty down so it was great to have chance to spend some time with warm people I can be myself around.
I felt welcomed into the bosom of a family
