049: Finding Gratitude In Parenting & Seeing The Hidden In Our Children

Parenting is so hard Kids are so difficult We are so worn out and nothing is working There is nothing to be grateful for Ugh     Although there are times when all of this feels very true, let's also find the courage to look for that which makes it all worth it. We will find many things to be grateful for which may not be immediately visible to us. We begin to see what's there, as soon as we stop ruminating about what isn't there.   Everything we have ever put our energy into, gives us something back.   When we put so much energy into parenting, wouldn't it be only fair that we got some of it in the return? And it does, if we know how to see. We need to look to things that make it all worth it, no matter what.  Take a listen...       Want more ideas?
