Gratitude
Linny Nance & Network Lyrics

Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows.
Life is not always filled with happiness and good times.

Sometimes it flat out sucks.
There are times when life is simply terrible and unpleasant.

Maybe something isn’t going the way you want it to.
Perhaps there is a situation or aspect of your life that is not going as desired.

Perhaps you’re struggling with money or a relationship or your kids or your body…
Maybe you are facing difficulties related to finances, relationships, parenting, or your physical well-being.

Maybe it’s just a small something…
It could be a minor issue or problem.

Or maybe your life seems completely upside down right now.
Alternatively, your life may feel completely chaotic and disordered at this moment.

And no matter how many affirmations you speak, how knowledgeable you are that everything will ultimately be ok, or how hard you try to be super positive...sometimes the moment just sucks.
Regardless of the positive affirmations, your understanding that things will eventually get better, or your attempts to embrace positivity, there are moments when the current circumstances are simply unpleasant.

So the intention of today’s meditation is to help you sit with the suckiness of the now...and move through it to find gratitude...gratitude that will ultimately invite in peace and love and help you shine.
Therefore, the purpose of today's meditation is to guide you in accepting the difficulties of the present moment and then progressing towards finding gratitude. This gratitude will eventually bring about inner peace, love, and allow your inner light to shine.
