Joy and gratitude, even in time of loss

4/25/2018

Yesterday we lost a member of our family, our sweet pup, Bow. He has been with us for over a decade, and it was a sudden loss. And it's been a tough 24 hours. But with this sadness, comes the reminder to not take things for granted, and while I can feel sad, and maybe even lost, I can also feel joy in the people and pets we still have in our lives, in my life. 

I look at my life, in pieces and as a whole, and I often let things pass by without realizing the depth of them. The meaning of them. But each moment means something. Even if it just means another chance to take a breath on this earth. This beautiful earth. Really, so many things to just sit back and think for a moment. We take for granted the "good mornings" we receive each day, the first breath of fresh air we inhale as we step foot outside, the warm hugs of our loved ones, and the pure joy that can we can take in, even on days of solace. 

Sometimes it feels strange and almost not right to want to see good in even terrible situations. But we have to, I feel. Our day goes on, and while we can be easy on ourselves in this time of loss, we have to be able to keep going. And for me, that needs to include gratitude and joy, even if it is small. 

I also teach self care, the importance and necessity of it. So, with that, today I will dedicate some time to myself. To grieve, but also to try to renew myself, so tomorrow can be the best it can be, even in these circumstances. I challenge you to also take a few moments today in self care. Do something to take care of yourself, renew yourself, get to your roots, and just enjoy the moments for what they are. 

Rest easy, sweet boy. You will be missed. 

Until next time,
​Nicole
