Today, I realized how lucky I am to be me.. to be living in a world with beauty, evil, heartbreak, and love.  It must be the rain, but I feel like I just woke up to reality.  Not the ugly reality that everyone talks about.. —the beautiful reality. I realized how happy I am to be living my life the way I am today.  I am so grateful for the wonderful people who have entered my life, friends- old and new, and of course my forever family.  I am so grateful to have such an amazing boyfriend.  I am so grateful to have experienced/still experiencing LOVE. —not just the love that you see in fairy tales & Disney movies.. the love that God has wanted for us to experience.. The love that many people seem to reject/refuse.

I just wanted to share my happiness, my “me” time.  I hope that you will have a day like this.. a day that you realize you are alive for a reason, a purpose.

For me, today was a blessing.
