The good you already live

Gratitude · Little Light original

There may be something in your ordinary life that an earlier version of you would have paused to admire. A relationship in which you feel at ease. Work that lets you use a skill you once hoped to learn. The freedom to make a small decision for yourself. You can acknowledge what is difficult now and still notice what has become possible. Give a little attention to the good things that familiarity has made easy to overlook. Let them have texture: the voice, the room, the particular moment. You do not have to wait for your whole life to improve before you appreciate something about the life you already have.
