Today we are in our favourite place Kaikoura. A place that has had a place in our hearts since we first met. A place of many beautiful memories. A place to come to rejuvenate body and soul.
This trip has been a bit different from our normal pattern in this place. We are staying in our favourite accommodation with a view of snow capped mountains. A view of sparkling seas and blue sky days.
I am sitting writing this while my husband has been walking the Kaikoura Peninsula walk. The walk that we usually do together but at the moment while waiting for my knee operation I can’t manage.
So why am I grateful?
I am grateful to be in a relationship where we give each other space to do things on our own without guilt.
I am grateful for the warmth of the sun, listening to soft music and reading and just enjoying some time to breathe.
I am grateful that the future is starting to look bright again and I will soon be walking with my husband again.
I am grateful that we are here together and find ways to be together and to be apart for a while but at peace.
Life is too short to not appreciate what we do have.
Today I am grateful for all that I have and all that we are as a couple.
Take time in this world to be grateful..
