Gratitude
Inspired by the Create Beauty Daily blog, I wanted to share some things I am grateful for today. It's been kind of a rough week, so this is really great timing for me!
1. Learning, in spite of the fact that I am sometimes pushed to learn things outside my comfort zone. Some part of me, deep down, knows that I will see the value in this material when I look back at my current life years down the road.
2. Happiness on my dog's faces after they've just returned from a long walk.
3. The fact that my dogs are always cheerful, willing running partners.
4. Having fun with Wii Fit skateboard competitions against my husband.
5. Starting out the day with hazelnut creamer in my coffee, which my non coffee drinking co-worker always says smells like cookies.
6. The view of the downtown Denver skyline at night. I love where we live.
7. Making some new charms after several months of not creating, and realizing that I am still very much in love with jewelry making.
8. My favorite clever TV shows that make me laugh on days that I don't feel like laughing.
9. My sweet husband who hugs me on days I don't feel very hug-worthy.
10. Vanilla beer
This summer is the first time in my life I'd ever kept a gratitude journal, and it was just for a few weeks, but if you've never done this I highly recommend it! The best thing for me was realizing what makes me most happy, and being conscious of trying to include more of those things in my daily life. It's also a really nice way to end each day. It would probably be a great way to start off a day, too.
