What Are You Grateful For Today?

For strong legs that keep me going!

For joggers who smile as I pass.

Actually I am grateful for quite a lot...I am grateful to have a kind and loving man in my life (a first), I am grateful for my Goddess Children, I am grateful for my pets - my dog who loves me (sometimes so much that she drives me nuts :), my ferrets who always make me laugh (it is very hard to be depressed around ferrets), and my snake who is just quiet and peaceful. I am grateful for this forum, and for the beautiful day because there was a time when I was not sure i would see another one (and not sure I wanted to).

Jet, I've met a ferret and was enthralled! He was such a funny little character. He skittered all over the floor -- and backwards! -- and had a goofy little nose that never stopped sniffing. Just the word "ferret" makes me grin.

My older brother, when he was 12 and I was 10, had some garter snakes in a terrarium. One day, we released the snakes into our sister's bed (she was 18 that summer and an insufferable princess :mad:). Oh, God -- the sound of her screams -- it was ecstasy to our ears :occasion:

So grateful for animal antics, affection, wisdom, presence!

...and moments of sheer naughtiness and joy experienced with my siblings. Remembering these delightful moments helps to balance my perspective...

I am feeling very grateful right now for some of the fabulously cheesy songs -- like "That's Amore" -- of the Rat Pack era. I've just listened to Frank Sinatra's "Summer Wind" three times in a row. :thumbs-up

I am grateful for my children.

My teenage son makes straight A's, is in the top band and plays football and track. He has many friends, yet he is respectful to me and to adults. He is a GREAT kid!

I went to my first grader's open house. He is very shy and very well mannered. His teacher said that the one thing that stands out is his genuine sweetness. That made me very proud.

My 2 year old is a mess. She is very active and into everything. Nobody is a stranger. She is so full of love and energy.

I am so blest.

I am grateful that I am coming out of a three month shutdown. Now I am just overwhelmed at catching up with the living.

A fairly warm night, a walk with the man I love, picking up a mini tub of ice cream, and eating the whole thing! Yum!

 

[spiritofnow]

That I have the gift of life!

For friends whose input enables me to override my insecurities, and allow me to remember that I am worthwhile.
