I’ve noticed that through the practice of observing life through the lens of gratitude, often the truest wisest decision maker within you is invited to come forth and help you navigate more easily when tough times are present. When you actively practice appreciation, the desire for more is quieted, and the truest self can see the purpose of the adversity while in the midst of it. Desire often triggers growth in the process, but appreciation allows that growth experienced on the way to your goal to feel as gentle and appropriately timed as possible. 👽💜☀️
