take a sec to look at everything that is beautiful in your life, every little thing that brings you joy. guess what, you created that. on some level, subconscious or conscious, you manifest all of that beauty. these highlights in your life are a perfect testimony of the magic and power that courses through your veins. never forget just how fucking powerful you are!

I am grateful. Always. And like a gift that never ends, beauty keeps blossoming into my life. The more grateful I am, the more gifts I am blessed with. And the more gifts I am blessed with, the more grateful I become. It becomes a cycle in which gratitude begins to respirate from within.
