Living With Gratitude

Sometimes you get caught up with every day life, that you begin to lose a part of yourself. The days seem no different from the next and soon begin to merge into each other. It's difficult to appreciate what you take for granted. It's only when something happens in your life, that you realize how special life is. It may be the smallest thing that you experience, but it's enough to make you pause for just a moment and reflect upon the blessings you have. It's different for everyone, but you'll know it when your spirit fills with gratitude that you're lucky to be alive. These moments may not come often and may last for only a few seconds, but there are enough of them to remind you that where ever you are, you are definitely where you're supposed to be. 
A special moment...

(The clouds seem to have a message for me, if just to appreciate the day. The day may not have gone so well, but looking up in the sky it doesn't matter. No matter what kind of day I've had the clouds always have a way to make me feel better. Their beauty is overwhelming.)
