Gratitude is somethingthat is very important to me. I do mybest to think about things that I am grateful for daily. I find that this brings a lot of happiness,calm and peace to my life. It’s reallywonderful to be able to stop for a moment each day and think about the thingsthat you are grateful for … from the big things like life itself, to the smallthings like warm socks on a rainy day.
Last year, my friend Kiminspired me when she started sharing things she was grateful for daily onFacebook during the whole month of November. This year, I was inspired to do the same and have looked forward toreading her daily log of things she’s grateful for. It has been refreshing to take a moment eachday and reflect on the things I am grateful for in that moment.
Today I read a post frommy friend Jennifer at Hybrid Rasta Mama, Counting My Blessings … a beautiful post about gratitude. After doing my last gratitude post onFacebook and reading Jennifer’s post on gratitude, I was inspired to do my ownpost here.
As we wrap up the last dayof November today and move forward into December, I feel inspired to share someof the things that I am so grateful for.
Gratitude …
1. Everyday thefirst thing I am grateful for is life. Iam grateful to be alive, to wake up every morning next to my loving hubby-to-beand my Little Love when she climbs into bed for morning cuddles.
