  22. The wind blew solemnly over the crowded city. A woman dashed across the road, hoping the light was still red. A man strolled down the street to meet his husband at their new apartment. Children ran around the park, playing with their friends. And as I look around, I think of how I feel to be here. Grateful.

  23. I am, and sometimes need reminding to be.

  24. I am grateful when I am thirsty and someone offers me a drink. To me it’s a feeling of being thankful for something, and feeling lucky, privileged, to have got that something.

  25. Grateful:

    Defection: Grateful means that you are thankful for what you have. Grateful is when you are truly happy about you, and your gifts and talents. Anyone can be grateful.

    Used in a sentence: I am so grateful for the things I have been given. I am so grateful that I have been blessed with two working arms and two working legs and lungs and eyes and everything. These things make me who I am and I am grateful for that.

  26. Every day is the same old thing
    Seeing you with her makes my heart sting
    The way your eyes look at her with desire
    I feel as though my whole world is on fire
    I think it hurts so much to see
    because that’s how you used to look at me
    You told me you wished I could see how beautiful I am
    On those bad days where nothing makes me smile, you can
    You’re funny and caring and sweet to me
    But lately it seems like it’s only when you want to be
    Whenever she’s around acknowledging me comes to an end
    Even though you told me I’m your best friend
    I try to move on
    I want these feelings gone
    But when I’m with you I remember why
    I love you because you’re what I want in a guy
    I’ve never met anyone else like you
    Who sees the world the way I do
    Do you think your life would be better…
    if you thought maybe we were meant to be together?
    But I don’t think you will ever know
    So the time has come to let you go
    Some people just aren’t meant to stay in our lives forever
    So I decided to write you this final letter
    I know that you will never reply
    Because this is where I finally say goodbye

  27. Grateful. Grateful for the sun, shining its rays, illuminating emerald leaves in all their glory. Grateful. Grateful for the air, its aroma smelling faintly of dew-drops and moss, the squeal of tires against water permeating the silence. Grateful. Grateful for the buildings and the people, oh how many people. The people of the rainbow, from white to black to yellow to green to purple to even the faintest shades of pink of newborn babes, still too young to know the difference between white and black and green and purple and pink. And these people, it’s miraculous what they do! They walk and they talk and they dance and they sing and they make stuff up in their brains! It comes from nowhere, like magic, and yet, it is the most beautiful thing in the world. It is art and music and science and math and all of that is rolled up into history which is rolled up into the universe which is scattered across the cosmos in tiny pieces of dust. I am dust, you are dust. I am Cleopatra’s ambition and Joan of Arc’s courage and you are Eleanor of Aquitaine’s beauty and Mahatma Ghandi’s kindness. We are the sum of all of our parts, and we are beautiful and special, and we rule the world like kings and queens, except our crowns are not made of gold but thoughts and ideas. So grateful! What would the world be like without you? Without me? Without the man walking down the street across from the bakery? Would the earth stop spinning? Would we die? Would we even exist? Would our stardust be scattered across the cosmos until it lands on some distant planet in some distant alien that can’t tell the difference between white and black and yellow and green and purple and the faintest shades of pink? Grateful. Grateful for the cells within us, grateful for our hearts, grateful for our lungs, grateful for our noses, grateful for our pores, grateful for the sweat that sticks to foreheads after a long day of work and legs are sore and feel like jelly. Don’t you see how wonderful this is? Humans! Animals! In the face of hardship and fear, we look it straight in the eye and face it. Isn’t that beautiful? Isn’t that miraculous?

  28. “I hope you know what this means to me,” she whispered.
    He smiled softly, sadly, and replied with the faintest strains of hope tingeing his voice, “I hope it means your life.”
    And then he let go.
    And fell.
    Leaving her to be rescued.
    Leaving her.
    He left her clinging to the rocks, no longer burdened by his weight.
    He left her clinging to the rocks, so she could live.
    And then she cried.
    And cried.
    Left to live her life, and his.

  29. What is gratitude and what can it mean? Screenshots of our life that live so quietly. Can there really ever be a secret bean?

  31. What it means to be grateful is a key to unlocking happiness. The kind of happiness that seems to show in everything you do. Being grateful, in my opinion, means being aware and grateful of the external factors in your life that help you to thrive both physically, mentally, and spiritually. It can be giving thanks to people in your life, nature and it’s processes that help you to live, or the love from those in your life that you can’t seem to go without. It is being grateful that helps us to look up and see the gifts we’ve been given, the ones we often take for granted and take advantage of. When being grateful, it seems we are fully secure in our world and in ourselves. Because we are able to acknowledge the factors that got us to where we are now, like the hardships of our ancestors, of the laws that govern us, and countless others. Though it can be challenging to be grateful, as us humans are often in search for happiness outside ourselves and short-term wants to satisfy us, accepting gratefulness and holding it dear truly helps us face life.

  32. A word whispered on a cold stormy day. A feeling experienced on a lonely night alone. What happens when we all stop in our crazy lives and just thinks for a moment? I wonder but, I don’t because I know that in this world thee are something’s that we shouldn’t wonder about. We should leave these things alone and just follow our noses through the cloud of life. We should be grateful that the were people who existed before us that believed in grate fullness. We should be grateful that we don’t need to come up with an idea that is almost too complicated for the human brain to comprehend because that is just how it works. In the world. An idea. A notion. Something to look up to. Nothing to experience. Gratitude. Living a world that we know not to be true.

  33. The stars shone bright in his dark eyes as he gazed into the night sky, reflecting unshed tears of happiness. “Thank you for saving her life.”

  34. Knowing that we as people that have us to keep us going in life, also showing people the real you and not someone you want to be. Knowing that you have someone that you care about and knowing that they love and appreciate you.

  36. there is something to be said about having a beating heart
    and ink
    and other things that most others don’t

    did you know that over 15 billion people have walked this path before
    that their whispers echo through time that you
    are another link in a chain that stretches far beyond you

    there is something to be said about existing
    to watch the moon roll by
    and the stars swing in high arcs above your head
    there is something to be said

    breathe in
    breathe out

    you are

  37. That everyone has something to keep them going in life. Knowing that you love and appreciate something.

  38. It’s hard to realize how much we all have—possibly because we’re surrounded by too much. Is there a way to be grateful for everything all the time? Or would that diminish the beauty of the things we treasure?

  40. I am always grateful. gratitude is the basis of life!!! Everyone who is more grateful will so much more out of life. It is a proven fact. So if you want to get more out of life, be extra grateful for what you have already. things will get much more abundant then!!!
