Each day we wake up and realize we are still alive and on the planet, Earth, it is something to celebrate.
It's good to start each new day of life with gratitude, just for being alive.
There are so many hundreds of gifts given to most of us in any given day.
A very dear cousin, Marianne, lives very near a beautiful lake in western Massachusetts.
While visiting her recently, a walk to the edge of the lake seems like a great idea.
The day could not have been more perfect.
The water, the blue sky, the fluffy, white clouds, the not-too-hot temps, and spending time with a beloved cousin, all could become part of the gifts that deserve deep gratitude.
Try to count some of your own gifts from today and you may be surprised.
They add up quickly.
So does saying "thank you" to the One who gives us everything.
HAVE YOU EVER KEPT A GRATITUDE JOURNAL?
