Gratitude Journal – Day 265 – March 24, 2015

Success!
What does it mean to you? Is it setting a goal and achieving it? Is it having the most toys? Is it status? Or is it, just being content with what you have and where you are in life?
Make no mistake that hard work is the root of so much of the success we achieve in life. And for myDarlin’ Robert Kenui Pope and me, success was and is truly about trust, communication and flexibility. On the road to success often comes failures or disappointment, which must be treated as if we tripped and fell for just a moment.
And when we are down, the only thing to do is look up and trust that He is there for us, talk it out and learn how to do it better the next time. The sweetest part of success in a relationship and in life is sharing it with those you love, as it multiplies itself exponentially.
Then there is this realm of life called work…. and I am one of the many that love their job. We set goals, we work hard and we celebrate our success by sharing with all of the associates. As we gathered to celebrate the success of the previous year, I open the bag of bacon cheddar popcorn, look up to the heavens and give thanks for the blessings in my life and think to myself, it’s good to be Orange!
Today I am filled with gratitude for the successes in my life. A wonderful Ohana, a great job and the most beautiful love story I could ever have imagined…..
