Grateful

I am grateful for the sun that rose over the boats on the marina this morning The sun rising over our “backyard”

I am grateful I have the opportunity to walk by those boats every morning to begin my day

I am grateful for a husband who woke me up this morning with a kiss

I am grateful for the warm cup of decaf coffee this morning, three teaspoons of cream and Splenda

I am grateful for four wonderful sisters and one brother

I am grateful for both of my parents being just a short drive away

I am grateful for my career albeit incredibly hectic at times

I am grateful for the fragranced candle burning to soothe my morning

I am grateful for food in the fridge, running water, electricity and a nifty trash chute

I am grateful for the restful sleep last night and in advance for even better sleep this weekend

I am grateful God’s plan is masterful and he knows so much more than me

I am grateful for this fabulous laptop I have sitting in front of me as I stay warm near the heater

I am grateful.  I am grateful.  I am grateful.

At times, life can be a bit of a whirlwind and right now is one of those times.  But I hold on to my gratefulness.  It guides me through each day.  The first thing I say at the beginning of the day and the last words I speak before I fall asleep at night: Thank you.

Today, as an innumerous number of thoughts pass through your mind, pause for a moment and simply say thank you.  You have so much to be grateful for, as do I.  So let’s head into the weekend with a grateful heart and an intention to live in the moment.

Until Monday…make it a great weekend!
