This week I have really been aware of how much I have. This is truly the land of plenty, and my life is beyond blessed. I thought I would write a Gratitude Ladder - you know, when you think of one thing and it leads to another, and so on and so on. So here goes:
I am thankful for a healthy body, which makes me think of:
I am thankful for arms and legs that can move:
and the ability to process information and learn new skills:
the chance to teach myself new cooking skills:
food:
all kinds of food:
the smell of baking bread and how a smoothie feels going down your throat:
how salt can inhance the flavor of food:
that I don't have to hunt for or scavenge for food:
I have shelter from the cold:
Paul has a job to pay the heating bill:
my husband is alive and is my dearest friend:
unexpected letters from old friends:
technology that allows us to communicate in a blink of an eye:
technology that allows a little boy to live with only half a heart:
generosity of others:
late night conversations with loved ones:
a quiet moment to myself:
good books:
deep sleep:
and on and on.......
You might want to write a ladder of your own. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!
