What are you proud of yourself for lately?

It’s not easy to answer that question… Especially in the time frame of “lately”. I’m not proud of myself lately, I am stressed out, I am literally in the mode of: I have no idea what to do with such and such problems. I am wrestling financially, some bills have already passed its due date. I hope and pray for some miracles to happen, but perhaps Life has different plans, better plans I’m sure, yet I don’t think the  miracle has arrived. But I’m still here… Alive and charmingly going to work like nothing happens, so there must be something I can be proud of myself.

• I have my dark days now, I don’t know for how much longer … But I still show up to the world.
• I exercise regularly, I eat healthy food
• I write a therapeutic journal daily, I aim for two writings, once in the morning, I write with my hand, and second I type here in my blog. 
• I meditated seven consecutive days up to this day! In January.
• I don’t feed my anger, whenever some strong emotion makes me feel angry or sad, I choose to slow down my breathing. 4 inhale.. 4 hold.. 4 exhale.. 4 hold… Repeat as much as I like.
• I am still a hardcore believer that miracles will happen to me.
• I am able to enjoy the rain, regular days, clean the house, the toilet, and appreciate that I can move my body without any pain.
• I choose to slow down and live peacefully.

Cheers,
