Things that I am grateful for...

I adore Thursdays. Mostly because I don't have class on Fridays, so as soon as I get out of recitation at 1:45 I am on top of the world. I've started a little routine of coming home, making a relaxing lunch, catching up on LOST, and going to yoga in the evening. Tonight I left yoga filled with gratitude. I felt like everywhere I walked I found something to be grateful for. It was misting outside but it felt good and I had a yogi tea to keep me warm.

Tonight I feel like I am exactly where I need to be. 


It's true. We are all exactly where we need to be, and I believe we each have a very specific, very special plan for our lives.  I may be jobless and financially crippled and so far from who I want to be and what I want to do with my life, but it's okay, because right now, in this moment, I am exactly where I need to be and the rest, with faith, will come. I'm trying not to forget that.

So for tonight here are some things I am thankful for...

In no particular order:

The fact that I'm from California,
My family,
Yoga,
Being able to get an education at NYU,
Nathan Arlo Buckley,
The fact that I was raised Christian,
The opportunity to live in New York City,
Christmas, and everything it stands for,
Being content with what I have,
My dog, Savanna,
Being able to fly to California for Thanksgiving,
My friend Lisal,
Whole Foods and my Sigg,
The new yoga journal I bought tonight-- here's a picture, it's way awesome.
