Share your gratitude

At a suggestsion of a fellow ICA member I have decided to include a place for gratitude here on my blogsite. Here I would like to share some of my gratitude and would also like to hear about any place or reason for gratitude that you may have in your life. Kind of a bit of ‘chicken soup for the soul’, chocolate would probably suit me better as an analogy.

Today my gratitude extends to the opportunities that lay out there for me. I want this gratitude to help enthuse me to seize them, to face the challenges they may give me and the opportunities to learn.

It is easy to be thankful for the many obvious things in our life – health, families, friends, a place to live – so much of this we take for granted in our day to day lives. I consider what specifically can I be grateful for in each of these areas?? If I can think of a more unique aspect, perhaps the way my son or daughters gave me a big hug today or the way my husband laughed at my jokes, rubbed my feet, my friend gave me fresh grapes from their vineyard, the people at my work were happy today,  I can still touch my toes. This gives me a fresher sense of gratitude and more of a taste for my life.  It also opens my eyes to be more observant and ‘live’.

I hope that you can ‘trust’ me to share your gratitude for whatever reason you would like!
