Gratitude – a positive emotion or attitude in acknowledgment of a benefit that one has received or will receive.

It’s 7: 00 PM on day 78 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself Oats for breakfast,    learn how to calculate Differentials – when I finish this chapter I will have finished the Math syllabus  – I am SO happy 🙂 –  wheel myself to the bed –  my first impulse was to ask my sister to do it for me but in the end I did it by myself because I realized that no one likes a helpless leach LOL 🙂 –      feed myself  rice and curry for lunch     and exercise for 30 minutes – today’s session was surprisingly pleasant I should watch a   movie  while exercising more  often  🙂

Today my brother came to me and said I’m really feeling sorry for myself and I asked him why and he said I have to run around the field three times tomorrow and I said with no self-pity in my voice at least you can run and I guess that’s my message to everyone don’t complain about all the things you have to do just be grateful that you can do them. Do you live in a constant state of gratitude or misery? 🙂
