I wrote about feeling grateful, and I meant to elaborate on that, but ended up on another tangent and never got back.
It's lovely to acknowledge gratitude for the gift of insight and self evaluation when things suck. It's another to feel gratitude for the universe and all the powers that be when you realize you've come out on the other side, brushing yourself off, all the while saying 'holy fuck, that was something...'
Now, after the brushing off, after the dust has settled, I feel a shit ton of gratitude for all the other stuff.
