Gratitude

Gratitude

Friday off, it is rainy, cold and dreary. My blessings are many; 

• I woke up
• a hot cup of java
• books to read
• Max, doggo snuggles
• House, roof over my head
• Heat
• Bed
• Food
• Family and friends

These are a few of my many. Recently our administrative assistant at our school was diagnosed with lymphoma. So today as I sit here, writing, snuggling with my ol’ doggo I am filled with gratitude for my health, all that I have. It is a blessing to have a day to snuggle in, recount my blessings. I have run a total of 57.22 miles so far for breast cancer awareness, honoring and remembering those I love, hold in high regard who have battled won and lost to this disease. My heart is full of gratitude for all that is. Good and bad fill every day. Don’t like the bad, yet it shapes me, creating a grateful heart for all that is. Learning from the hard times, growing, becoming a better human because of it. Thankful for the here and now, living one day at a time, (ODDAT), one moment at a time… Life, all that is, gratitude. Breathe in, this is the day the Lord has made, Breathe out, I will rejoice and be glad in it. Not exempt from the bad, celebrating each moment with gratitude, alive and well.

Love to all, may your heart be filled to overflowing!
