8 Things I’m Grateful For This August

Can y’all believe the month of August is almost over… already? I sure can’t. I feel like I graduated from nursing school yesterday. Nevertheless, as this month gets ready to come to an end, I can’t help but reflect on all the things I’m particularly grateful for this month. So bear with me as I take a nose dive into all the things I’m grateful for this month.

For starters,

#1

This month – i mean how could I not start with sharing how grateful I am for the month of August? I’m 28 days in and I’ve already learned so much and been blessed with so much. Whew August. You were most definitely a doozy. This month has truly shown me that this time in my life is my winning season and I’m so grateful for the Lords blessings.

#2

My life – This world is becoming such a dangerous place and I’m honestly disturbed by that notion. So it goes without saying that I’m constantly reveling in my life and the grace granted over me to see a new day. No day is promised so you better believe I’m twerking and two stepping for making it this far in the month already.

#3

My family – I’m not too sure where I would be without my family and to be honest — I never want to find out. Through everything I may have faced or experienced this month, my family has been a constant. Home in both the literal and figurative sense.

#4

Days/Nights on the town – I’m grateful for the moments I’ve had this month with friends. There’s something so special about going out and enjoying life with people you care about. There’s just something so beautiful about people getting together to have honest good fun. So yeah I’m thankful for those moments I’ve had this month. Naturally, praying they continue into the new month on its way.

#5

My preceptors at my job – I’m thankful for my preceptors because they are facilitating my growing process as a new nurse. Their guidance and constructive critique are surely shaping me into the Nurse I’ve always imagined myself to be. A nurse who is Thoughtful, efficient, thorough, and caring in all facets. Thank y’all because y’all are shaping me into a bad ass. Oh yeah!

#6

My WLT fam – Hey! All of you babes who follow along with me and tell a friend to tell three friends about what I have going on here on withlovethelms.com… I’m SO FREAKING THANKFUL FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU. Writing is nice, but engaging with all of you? Cupcake with the most delicious icing on top and more. That’s how y’all make me feel and the way you all showed up and showed out for me this month? There are no words. <3

#7

Opportunities – this month has been the month of opportunities and I’m so grateful for that fact. Y’all I can only pray that my good fortune continues and I’m blessed with more opportunities to grow as an individual and a brand.

#8

Self love – Yep, self love is one of the things I’m grateful for this month. Im so happy with who I am and I’m realizing that more and more. Of course there are days when feeling great is harder than others, but I’m doing it. I spent this month working hard on keeping up the momentum and remaining rooted in self love and healthy adoration for myself. This month was eye opening because I continued to reinvest in myself. Not in the sense of money, but spiritually. Ah, praying that my self love refuses to remain stagnant and instead is adamant about continuing to flourish.

That’s it y’all! Those are the 8 Things I’m Grateful for this August.
