So much is going on in the world right now and we are a nation in deep pain. As a person of brown skin, a woman and gay, I have known firsthand what it is to stick out like a sore thumb, what it is to be judged and labeled just by appearance, and what it is to be targeted for not looking white enough.

Gratitude is one of many critical points to creating a kickass life. It can keep the naysayer in you at bay. Bad mood be gone!

Does this sound familiar?

I'll do it later, tomorrow, next week. I'm too tired. I don't feel like it.

Then you wind up frustrated that your intentions aren't manifesting and spiralling down into more "I'm tired" and "I don't feel like its".
