As I meditated, I became grateful for everyone around me and the given circumstances. Before meditation, I didn’t even know I was depressed, and I lived blaming all the circumstances, people and conditions.

It had been about 2 weeks after I had registered for level one at the local meditation center when my husband laughed, ‘Don’t ever quit meditation.’ The mornings that usually started with me screaming at the children turned calm and peaceful, so I think my husband enjoyed it.

And the best thing I was grateful for was that I was able to tell my children that they are pretty and lovable. Those words came out from my own mouth. Even when I was single, I had never thought children were beautiful. Even after giving birth to children, I just thought since I am their mother raising them I would occasionally think they are pretty, but after meditation I sincerely and truly think my children are lovable. Thank you.
