Natalie Gumede Instagram – Lots of people I know, myself included, have been feeling the effects of a very dense time recently.
The chaos of world events has a way of reflecting in both our individual circumstances and internal worlds.
When I’m at my most challenged, my horizons may lower, and I cannot always plan beyond the next week – sometimes even the next day.
What I can do, and the one thing I always have control over, is the lens through which I interpret those challenges. If I am able to practice gratitude for my day and all the richness within it, then my perspective always changes for the better.
It can be as simple as vocalising one’s thanks for a phone call, a hot meal, a roof over one’s head, or the beauty of nature – even if just to oneself.
We cannot always know when things will change for the better, but if you can allow knowing THAT THEY WILL comfort you, then the seemingly ordinary beauty within the challenges is sometimes revealed. The greater beauty being that you are present for your life, through all of it.
What are you grateful for at the moment? I’ll start – I’m so grateful for the support from the people that love me ❤️#poetry #instapoet #inspirationalquotes #inspirationalpoetry #therapypoetry #selfhelppoetry | Posted on 17/Mar/2024 05:11:07
