In today's episode, we're diving into the power of gratitude, but not the surface-level kind. We're talking about recognizing the blessings that are already in your life, even when social media is screaming that YOU'RE NOT ENOUGH.
Here's the truth: You have breath in your body. You have a right mind. You have your spirit. Everything beyond that is bonus—and I mean that. After spending over a month in the hospital with my father I have a new perspective on things. I witnessed real struggle up close, and it shifted everything I thought about gratitude. Some people are fighting battles we can't even imagine. And here we are, blessed beyond measure, maybe just missing it because we're too busy looking at someone else's highlight reel.
But this isn't just about gratitude—it's about ACTION. It's about giving back during this season. When you donate clothes, books, your time, your love to someone who needs it more than you do, something magical happens. That generosity waters not just their plant, but your own. That's real. And it's powerful.
And for those of you feeling alone right now. For those of you without the family gathering you wish you had, without the financial abundance, without the so called picture-perfect holiday? I want you to know something: You are loved. If no one else loves you today, God loves you. And Cousin Ed loves you too. Look in the mirror and say it: "I love myself."
This episode came straight from the heart, straight from what I know and also wanting to keep it real with you. No scripts, no perfection—just family talking to family. This is what Cousin Ed's Corner is all about: authentic conversations that remind you of your worth, your power, and your blessing.
