Today I am Thankful

Today, I am thankful for my life.

Today, I feel blessed.

Today, I know that we are so, so lucky.

My children are healthy. My worries are few. My mother’s new pain medication is helping, and helping her achieve her ultimate goal of taking less medication. For her, for that, I am so thankful. My job is secure, and my business is going strong. Our bills are paid each month and we can afford the things that we need. I have friends. I have family. I have love.

It’s days like this that I believe strongly in God. It’s days like these that it’s so easy to have faith that it’s all going to be OK. It’s days like these, where I think everything would be completely perfect, the most perfect, if I could just snuggle my children on a blanket under the warm sunshine and take a long nap, my husband by my side.

Today is a good day.

    I once heard someone say that if the only prayer we ever say in our lives is thank you, it will be enough. Awareness of gratitude is such a powerful thing. Thank you for speaking yours.

    I love this. Goes with my post I wrote this weekend. Maybe its a theme this week. To be grateful, enjoy things simply and in the moment. :::smooches::::
