Gratitude Attitude
What better time of the year than now to talk about Gratitude?
Perhaps it's a good thing we set a day aside to remember to give thanks for all the blessings we have.
Perhaps it's a good thing we set a day aside to remember to give thanks for all the blessings we have.
And I'm sure each of us have of a list of things/people we are grateful for.
Here are a few of mine:
Living in a country that allows me freedom of choice:
Religiously, Politically & Individually.
A Husband who is Devoted and Silly.
We are better together
and I can't imagine going through Life without him.
A Daughter who is Up Beat and Positive.
She always make me feel better.
A Son-in-Law who Innovative and Entrepreneurial.
He adds another dimension to our family.
A Son who is Focused and Resourceful. He shares recipes with me.
A Son who is Creative and Perceptive. He gives the Best Hugs.
A Daughter who is Diplomatic and Practical.
She Grounds me, reminding me things are really not so bad;
and that it doesn't really matter what others think.
A Sister who always Listens and is one of the most Beautiful people I know; inside and out.
I appreciate her more than she'll ever know.
I've learned so much from these people.
Now go create your own list.
And don't forget to share it with each of the people you are
Thankful for...all year long.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Don't complain about the things you don't have.
Instead, be Grateful for what you do.

Nothing is More
It's that time of year again.
Holiday Time. And the Count Down begins.
Wow. When it's put that way, you can feel the stress.
In fact, it can make you feel as if you are rushing through Life
only to watch it pass you by.
So I'm here to remind you to seize some time for yourself.
Each day.
Slow Down.
Take a Time Out.
For a few minutes each day, Doing Nothing is More.
Take 10 minutes and do something that quiets you.
Sit on the deck. Listen to the birds. Let the sun shine in your eyes.
Read something spiritual and meditate on it.
How does it apply to you?
Listen to music. Can you identify the instruments?
How does it make you feel?
Cook up some soup. Chop. Dice. Mince.
Smell the aroma. Yummmmmm
Laugh with a child. There are few things more precious and innocent.
Take a steamy bubble bath. Light a candle. Lock the door.
Eat dinner together with your family.
Use linen napkins to make it special.
Linger after dinner and really listen to your child's ideas.
It adds a new perspective to your Life.
Take a nap. Feel how it rejuvenates you.
Go for a walk. Cleanse your mind.
I'll admit, no one wants to be the first to slow down.
It sounds Lazy. Unmotivated.
But how does moving faster and faster make you feel? Accomplished? Exhausted?
If the answer is the latter, you need to reevaluate your time.
Take a look at that list of suggestions again.
I'm sure you can see the value in each one.
Slowing down takes some conscious effort.
You can start by surrounding yourself with people who enjoy
reading a good book.
Or better yet, swap one with them.
~ Get lost in the moment.
And in return, get a small measure of peace. ~
