I am Grateful for my Faith
It has been my anchor
My life is far from perfect, yet, I wake up every day with gratitude for what I have had, for what I have now and for all that will come in the future, and my greatest treasure and what keeps me anchored and grounded is my faith, without it, I would have taken a boat ride and then jumped into the ocean to never be found, yes, that’s how low I have felt, I have felt many conflicting emotions that are enough to drown anyone in sorrow, yet, in all those times, I have held on to my faith as if it was my only lifeline, in a way it is, it is the reason when everything is going well, I stay humble and grounded, and when everything is topsy turvy, I still persevere knowing that it will pass, and that the future is going to be brighter than I thought, that my dreams will come true and one day, I will be able to say that it was worth the wait, worth the patience and worth the tears and the prayers.
I am grateful because, it stops me from being cruel, it helps me keep my anger in check, it helps me forgive(forgiveness has never been easy for me) and it helps me stay positive, gives me strength to stay humble and helps me thrive to be kind and helps me empathize with others.
It is my lifeline and I am grateful for it.
