Beautiful words, beautiful thoughts. I love visiting your blog because you are such a positive person who brings a little sunshine to each day.

In response to your questions – I am grateful for my family, my health and strength; I am grateful that I have food in my pantry, clothes in my closet and a washer and dryer to clean them. I am grateful that we have a 24 year old car that still runs well. I am grateful that we we sold our house just before the market got shaky for sellers. And I am so, so grateful that my husband who has been unemployed for the past 18 months found a job the day before the banks collapsed.

God is good.

Don’t you love it when Friar talks science? I do.

Wendi- Beautiful post and so true. I have my zen of the sink ritual. It helps steady me, especially if I am working out a puzzle or worrying about one thing or another . Handwashing a few things helps me meditate, ground myself in the pure sensations of being ABLE to wash those dishes and have that warm water and the food that came before…very grounding.

Glad you are feeling well enough to travel.

Being grateful for the little things in life makes the rest of it a whole lot nicer doesn’t it!

Breathing through stuffy nostrils?
Life long allergies and asthma. Any day I can breath is a day I am VERY grateful for!!!!!

You can hang out here at the lighthouse whenever you want. Kick your shoes off and relax!
