Sometimes life throws you a curve ball, and you get to choose to stay open and see where it takes you.

I was planning to write a gratitude post today about a wonderful appreciation meditation that I just learned, which is very helpful in tuning in to all of the good in our lives and helpful for attracting more positive things to us. 

(And I promise I will write this post very soon!)

And then life took over, which sometimes happens, doesn’t it? 🙂

The curve ball is that Dan and I found a sweet cat late last night, and we were up almost all night spending time with her. We have our fingers crossed that we will find her home – it’s very obvious that she was well taken care of and very loved. 

So while I had planned on making journals, filling orders, and writing today – I will instead be putting up signs, going to the vet, and spending time with my new friend. 

And while I feel exhausted and a bit frazzled, I am so grateful that we found this sweet kitty and can hopefully reunite her with her family. I am so grateful that we were in the right place at the right time. I am so grateful that she trusted me enough to let me pick her up and take her home. 

I am grateful for unexpected gifts and wonderful new furry friends.

I am grateful for being able to stay flexible and continue this journey with an open heart.

And I am grateful that my intended post will come out when the time is right. 

Here’s to all of us being grateful for everything in our lives (including the curve balls).
