Day Eighty Eight and Eighty Nine - Back to Basics

Today I'm Grateful for Getting back to basics.

I have tried writing out what I am grateful for each day. I have tried being upbeat and positive. I have even tried finding things I like about myself. Now it seems I need to try something new to keep this project on track for the next 276 days. 

I have discovered that throughout all of this, the one thing that is constant, is that I have been endeavouring to find out what is wrong with me... why I feel a kind of emptiness. I have the most loving family whom I adore and wouldn't be without, I have a beautiful home, lots of interests and hobbies, but still feel, I don't know, less than what I am. I look in the mirror, and don't recognise the woman I see. Believe me, I'm not complaining, I'm just wondering where I went...

So for the next phase of my gratitude journal, I will still tell you one thing I am grateful for on that particular day. I will continue to find the positive and be as un-obnoxious as I can. However, I am also going to utelise this opportunity to find a solution. I am going back to basics. I am going to open my own mind and find out why I am feeling so obsolete.

Today I am grateful that I am still alive and moving forward on my self-awareness journey.
