A Return to Gratitude

How time flies!

I was struck this weekend with the fact that it’s been exactly a year since I joined this Balance Austin community.

At the time I wrote my first blog entry, I remember feeling like a bit of an imposter because of all the changes going on in my life. Yet it was pure and simple gratitude that helped to reframe the chaos:

As I look back on this year I have so much to be grateful for and so much to celebrate. And I am convinced more than ever that for all the things that change in life, there are some things that never change.....like the power of gratitude for enhancing the mountaintop experiences and smoothing out the bumps.

Look back on the past year of your life. What are you grateful for today?
