“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.” ― Melody Beattie

With everything going on around us, it’s important that we take a moment to express gratitude for the positive parts of life. Some of my friends and family share what they are grateful for in the midst of this craziness called life. 

Make sure you check out our #GirlBoss of the Week:  Tracey Totten (IG: @Sassaries), founder of Sassaries, a quickly expanding unisex accessories, eyewear and custom jewelry brand. 

While we express our gratitude, we still stand firmly on the side of justice for our black brothers and sisters who have been victims of the senseless acts of citizens and police officers across the world. Heavy on the #JusticeForBreonnaTaylor #JusticeForElijahMcClain #JusticeForJacobBlake Justice for the three transgender women who were attacked and all of the countless others.
