Gratitude Journal no. 28
/December 31, 2025
I am thankful for…
1. Time with my parents. They’ve been part of my whole life. While there have been moments and periods of contention, most of it has been pretty nice.
2. Failing this challenge of blogging. I set out to do a gratitude journal, which is a practice that should be done for the most part, daily. Well, I do truly take moments to pause and have gratitude on a daily basis, I failed to always get onto a device and document it for a future blog post. I guess I could consider using an easier tool and batch doing it for the future. I appreciate that I didn’t quit and that there’s room for growth so that I can try more in 2025.
3. Scheduling and backdating posts. Internet lets you time travel, and pretend that things were there before they really were. It’s also fun when you schedule something so far into the future that you forgot you were kind to your future self. Anyways, I am thankful for all the times I’ve been able to get things out in the world, regardless of when.

I decided to challenge myself to publish my personal writing more, starting January 2024. From pausing to deliberately reflect to getting more disciplined about creating for myself, I jumped into this goal. For a little more on this journey, check out my first public Gratitude Journal entry.
