Holding onto gratitude

From a prompt at paper coterie:  "Take a few minutes to focus on all the things that you have to be grateful for today and then, choose a perspective in which to capture at least one of those things in a photograph."

Grateful for indulgences, like silver hoop earrings, mercury glass votives, and a gold, glittery "Believe", objects on my bureau.


Grateful for choice, freedom, faith.  


Grateful that I have the strength and courage to leave a relationship that is making me deeply unhappy.  And holding onto a hope that I will choose a better man to enter a relationship with next time.
