I love reading all the things we are each grateful for. It might be heart-warming and inspiring to have them in one place. Not that you can't be thankful anywhere else on site of course; just someplace to go and read all the good that happens to us. 🙂 To start, I am so very grateful today to have found the crucifix passed from my grandmother down now to her great-great granddaughter. I'm so grateful to be making my way thru 1 of the top 2 hoarded rooms in my home. I am so grateful to be able to look around a room that I have avoided for years (except to toss stuff in) and see the way it used to be. I am so grateful for the life I used to have. I won't mourn its loss anymore by burying it and avoiding it. I'm so grateful that I can restore my daughter's room to the way she kept it with all her hopes, dreams, trophies, successes, friendships, creative decorating, and love of life displayed from toddlerhood thru college. I'm so grateful that her children will be able to come over and see what their mommy was like when she was growing up. I'm very grateful for the solitary seagull I saw today soaring over my back field. Living so close to the mountains the encroaching gulls are such a treat! | |
