What do you have in your life, right now, this moment that you love and are feeling thankful for having? Here’s my list…
1. The beautiful shades of red, yellow, orange, brown and green that are everywhere this season. Red winged sumac is nice.
2. My recent visit to the Chiropractor which seems to have left my back and hip in improved condition.
3. The impending last football game of the season is this evening and I am indeed thankful… thankful that the season is almost over, thankful for the good experience that my son had, thankful that he didn’t get hurt and thankful that this evening will be beautiful for an outdoor activity! He is the tall one here, in the lead.
4. Thankful for the chance to both walk through the woods and sit here on the deck relaxing before the game. I am listening to the wind through the trees and the birds and squirrels chatter around me. I am also eating a few crunchy cheetos and drinking a delicious Rogue Amber Ale. Nice.
5. I am thankful for where I live. I love the wilderness. It is calm and peaceful and I am never, ever bored! I have a gajillion projects that I could do or a gajillion gorgeous and comfy places to relax.
6. I am thankful for the varied tasks of my job – from three year olds to 19 year olds and from no disability to sever autism – each day is filled with wonderful students and people. I am also reminded that I should be very thankful for the family and the people that are in my life. I am truly blessed.
7. I am thankful that my in-laws will be joining us this weekend. They are really good people and I love them dearly. I am glad that they will be able to visit and to hang out for some good family time.
I hope that you can find some things each day and each moment to focus on that will fill you with gratitude and thanks. It makes each day good, hope you are having good days!
