Grateful

I am grateful for memories
For friends and for laughter
I am grateful for being here
To remember thereafter.
I am grateful for joy
For the lightness it feels
I am grateful today
For all that time heals.
I am grateful for life
Be it summer or storm
I am grateful for the places
So many I call home.
I am grateful for love
And how warm it can be
I am grateful no doubt
For all tht it means to me.
I am grateful and thankful
To live life to the fullest
No looking, no regret
Living self to the truest.
