Gratitude on the go! 8-5-13

Today I am grateful for:
-These quotes:
"You're braver than you believe. Stronger than you seem. And smarter than you think."
"Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place."
-metro transit
-Augsburg Fortress.
-This gem:

-the nice people working at both Barnes and Nobel and the Gap. Got me a new book and a pair of jeans. :)
-having the apartment all to myself this afternoon
-group. I actually talked a bunch in group about my mom. She's been on my mind this week. No new information really came to light, but I was able to get words out. That's a big first step. I mostly kept it together too. Although, it really is almost impossible to fully keep my composure. Words do not accompany talking about my mom with some anger and sadness. I also still feel like a giant asshole. I wish it wasn't so hard. But group held space with me and appreciated that I was able talk about it and thanked me for sharing and being courageous. I needed that support more than I realized.
-The stunning view by the lake tonight. 
I really, truly love my city.
Love, love, love!
-the two women who came up to me and asked if I knew the 10 commandments. Thanks for the story, ladies. :) 
-books
-blogs
-belly laughter
-laughter 
-late night happy hour with Emily at Chino. It's been so long. It was good to be back! 
-the basics
-melatonin 
-as always, my friends
