Things might not be perfect today. 

Things might hurt today. 

Things might go wrong today. 

Things might be really hard today. 

Things might actually suck today. 

And i might cry today. 

And i might feel like shit at times today. 

But I will know that none of these things make me less beautiful,

less wonderful

or less desirable. 

And I will allow all those feelings

and then still choose to be glad today. 

And I will then still choose to focus on what I want today. 

And I will then still choose to believe in myself today. 

And I will then still choose to serve others today. 

even if it’s not an ideal day ...

I am so thankful to be alive today.
