Thank you for the thanks

This is going to sound really corny, but I am thankful for (#142) thankfulness. Last night I was feeling super stressed and anxious. I couldn't fall asleep because my mind kept running in circles. All I could think about was work and life and how things have not been going in the direction I want them too. I feel like I have been spinning in circles and I physically started to feel it last night. Sleep alluded me and I was starting to have a minor freak out.

For some reason I thought of this blog and decided I needed something to take my mind of the stresses of life. Instead of counting sheep I started thinking about everything that I have, everything I have been blessed with. The effects were instant and amazing. I felt myself calming down physically, emotionally, and mentally. This may sound completely goofy to anyone else, but it really brought me back to reality and what is important. I would suggest this to anyone who feels the stress of daily life is crushing them. It may feel weird at first, but you will be amazed at the difference it can make.
