-getting the opportunity to see Stevie Wonder in concert. My dad and I went together. It was pretty amazing. The concert started around 8 and didn't finish until midnight! There was an intermission but it was only 30 minutes so it was like a 4 hour concert! He played all his songs from his album Songs in the Key of Life and THEN for the finale he basically played all his other major hits closing with Superstitious. India Ire was also there as his guest and sang some great songs too. It was so rad and definitely a once in a lifetime concert.
Usually throughout the day I find myself seeing or hearing or even thinking of things that make me feel grateful. However I would never write it down. So I decided to change that. Gratitude is so important for me and I'm glad now I'll be able to reflect and share my gratitude with others.

-getting to do what I love for a living! On stage tonight I had that euphoric rush of joy! It doesn't happen all the time but when it does it reminded me how wonderful and lucky I am to have the life I'm living.
-the sun shining brightly today
-laughter
-finding all sorts of awesome gems on YouTube of interviews of actors that I loved when I was young

Gratitude on the go! 3-27-15
Hello there again old blog. I've been severely neglecting you. I'm sorry. I am not gonna promise that I'll write in you every day, but I will try to keep posting on a regular basis. I need to remind myself how much gratitude is important in my every day life. Like yesterday, I went to get a donut because I was feeling kind of crappy and the lady behind the desk gave me two for the price of one. Thanks, donut lady! You really made my day. :)
Recently I was diagnosed with an auto-immune disease. It was about a 4 month process to actually figure out what was wrong. As much as it sucked to hear, it was also a relieve to get a diagnosis. I'm grateful for that. Obviously it's still a process to try to figure out what will work best for my body and stuff like that but I'm trying to take it one minute at a time. Stress obviously doesn't help anything, so whenever I get upset I'm trying to take a breath and remember the things that I am grateful for. It's actually been quite helpful.
In conclusion, I'm gonna write more about what's making me happy. I'm gonna make a conscious effort to live in the moment and be thankful for all the good that surrounds me every day.
So today, here are some quotes that I'm grateful for:

So today, here are some quotes that I'm grateful for:
"Practice is like raising a duck. If it grows fast or slow, it's the duck's business not yours. Let go & just do your own work."
"Treat yourself the way you want to be treated by others love yourself and you will be loved."
"It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness."
"Feelings are much like waves, we can't stop them from coming but we can choose which one to surf."
"Laughter is the shortest distance between two people."
"Taking good care of you means the people in your life will receive the best of you rather than what is left of you."
