Day 54 and 62 of 365 Days of Gratitude
Oooops! Do you ever have weeks that just slip by? That’s just happened to me and the reason I haven’t yet posted the latest days of gratitude. That’s eight days you’ll read about now.
Day 54 I am grateful for:
A flock of parrots flying overhead, because they are crazy raucous, but it’s wonderful to see so many happily flying in their flocks. They are like a colourful Spirograph moving across the cyan sky.
Day 55 I am grateful for:
It’s Friday, because it’s the start of the weekend (I need not say more).
Day 56 I am grateful for:
A day of reading in cool water in the shade, because this has been one hot, humid summer (not that I’m complaining because I love Summer).
Day 57 I am grateful for:
Music, because it changes moods, makes you reminisce, makes you sing and makes you smile.
Day 58 I am grateful for:
A morning of writing with my dog at my feet, because there’s nothing more comforting than the silent companionship of a dog.
Day 59 I am grateful for:
A cooler night’s sleep, because I have no hot flashes and the temperature has dropped. No fan, no aircon and a blissful dream-filled sleep.
Day 60 I am grateful for:
Boxing so hard my knuckles ache, because I know I’m hitting harder and getting stronger. (Yes, I even have bruises).
Day 61 I am grateful for:
Footy is back, because I’ve grown up with NRL and I think my team will win this year. Go the Roosters!
Day 62 I am grateful for:
The fresh smell of early morning, because it’s the start of a new day and some people don’t get to have a new day.
Have you been noting what you’re grateful for? Why not have a go at it? You can find one thing in a day, or one thing in a week, or one thing in a month.
You’ll find that you’ll discover more and more wonderful things that make you smile. You’ll feel happier, because the negativity is diminished for positive thoughts. It’s not just a fun exercise to try it will truly change your life. Be grateful and enjoy your life more.
