I Woke Up Today

I woke up today in the arms of someone who loves me, someone who sang a quiet little birthday song in my ear.

I woke up today in a house that feels like home,
walked out the door and took a walk near a lake under a Carolina blue sky.

I woke up today and did work that I love,
supporting people who love what they do,
meaningful work that makes the world a better place.

I woke up today feeling comfortable in my own skin,
head over heels in love with the authentic version of me,
someone I worked so hard to find.

I woke up today grateful for the life I have cultivated,
a life that feels so real, so filled with love, so honest and authentic,
filled to the brim and overflowing with people who love me
just as I am.

I woke up today.
And that is more than enough.
