No matter what is happening in your life. . . lots of good things or not so good things . . . there are always things for which you can be grateful. Knowing this helps put life into perspective.
Please feel free to join in. It feels good!
Studies show that this daily task can have a positive impact in your life!
Cheryl - your daily post of your gratitude for indoor plumbing is inspiring me to remember to be grateful for the things I take for granted.
- two sane food days - I am grateful
- got my hair colored yesterday... looks so pretty. I love that I go to the salon at my mom's senior apartment. I love hanging with mom and her friends there
- inspiration from reading positive things
- my friend got a new kitty - Ginger - a cute tortie
- the daily paper on the front steps in the morning
Yes, I need to be grateful for the "taken for granted" things in my life like:
- an attractive and comfortable house
- my reliable Ford Focus which has earned a paint job
- fun and supportive friends
- well behaved and loving dogs
- Spring which always comes
- being able to splurge once in a while - I bought tulips yesterday
- living in this safe and beautiful part of my country

~I am grateful for fabulous dental insurance. I recently found out I have to get a crown, and would not have been able to afford it without the insurance.
~I am grateful for my daily walks and dinner with my parents. I've never felt closer to them than I do now and I truly appreciate the quality time and healthy environment that is allowing me to stay focused on my weight loss journey.
~I am grateful for two beautiful, smart, healthy children who amaze me and teach me something new every single day.
~I am grateful for the energy and strength that I have gained which is keeping me on this path, even when things have gotten tough.
~I am grateful that the rain has stopped and we have BEAUTIFUL sunshine today!!
