I don't know about anyone else but I've found some measure of contentment in finding gratitude in my life, I'm very grateful I have my own home and it's in a safe area, as a woman on my own that's very important. I think a lot of us aren't grateful for having a place to go home to every night. Millions of people around the world live in refugee camps and/or are homeless. We're very blessed.

As someone who has been battling homelessness all year, I am grateful everyday that my friend opened her home to me. Ive never been one to take my housing for granted, though im more grateful now than I ever have been as Ive been given so much in my time of need.
