Blessed & Grateful

June 3, 2019 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley Leave a Comment

I woke up really, really tired this morning.  Okay, I guess it is bad to start out a blog post that way, but it’s true.  I guess we all have those mornings.  Those mornings where we just want to pull the covers back over us, take a deep breath, snuggle in and sleep…and sleep some more.

Those are the mornings that I give myself a mental kick in the butt and tell myself to look around at all I have been blessed with.

I’ve seen better days, but I’ve also seen worse.  I don’t have everything I want, but I do have all that I need.  I woke up with some aches and pains, but I woke up.  My life may not be perfect, but I AM BLESSED. ~Unknown

My husband and I have been really, really busy the last few weeks.  The Horse Mafia® is keeping me really, really busy and with my family, my babies (9 horses, 4 dogs and few cattle (22)), my life is full.  But I feel so blessed.  And I am so grateful for my blessings.

My life isn’t perfect…far from it. But it’s a blessed life and for that I am so thankful.  If you ever hear someone say that their life is perfect, take it with a grain of salt.  No one’s life is perfect.  Life is very tough sometimes and you have to be tough sometimes in order to get through it.

Even with the tired feeling and the aches and pains that I have more often than not, I am blessed.  I am blessed to wake up, I am blessed to be given the gift of a new day.  This new day will take me closer to where I want to be.  The day gives me the opportunity to work more on my dreams and to pray and plan for bigger and better things.  God is good.  All the time.  And He has blessed me so very much.  And I am so grateful.

Sending you blessings of love, gratitude and hope for the future from Sterrett, Alabama!
