Staying grounded

My brain has been on a ferris wheel of thoughts and emotions the past few weeks and it's been hard to focus on much of anything for long.
Trauma, joy, peace, chaos and the mundane often seem to make their way into our lives without asking permission or with no warning at all. 

It's when all the aspects of life leave me feeling a little blah that I'm so very thankful for the life I've lived and the influences I've had in my life.  Parents that "get it."  Life, that is.  Sisters that listen.  Brothers that would be there for me in a crisis.  Friends that care.  A husband who loves me.  The list goes on. 
I am surrounded by beautiful people. 
It makes me grateful and hopeful for the future.
