I Can Be Grateful

Looking through the feed this morning and the sadness out there
I realize, though I struggle with depression, I have a lot to be thankful for.

You'd think something more tragic than "I wish for somebody to talk to" would make your heart cry a little, but that is what prompted this post.

I complain too much and, sometimes, am to ignorant of how good I have it.

I don't need fame, riches, or hoards of admirers... I just need love, corny as that sounds.
Perhaps, it's all any of us really need and those other pursuits are a substitute for it.

I love this idea and image. I have it saved on my phone as well. Yes, love is all we need yet we fill our lives with so much nonsense.

You are not alone in how you feel at all. I try to remind myself about being grateful but it can be easy to take how good we have it for granted.
