I am grateful for good health, functioning senses, and a mind capable of memory, creativity, and connection.

I am grateful for my parents, siblings, children, spouse, and friends — everyone who has offered support and protection.

I am grateful for books, education, shelter, food, clothing, and everything that makes a life possible.

I am grateful for my colleagues, partners, and even my competitors — they have all shaped me.


And I forgive myself.

For everything I have done that caused harm — to myself and to others. I take responsibility for my own healing.

I love myself.

I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.
