Re: Today, I'm Grateful because....

I am grateful that I woke up today with my eyes, ears, limbs, nose intact and working as they should That I have a roof over my head and food to eat. That I don't have to go back to work after interrupting my career to take care of my elderly mother, who died earlier this year -- as many of you have said, today's work environment is awful.

 

I am grateful for so much more than I can mention here. And I am amazed by it all!

Because......

 

Almost my entire family (myself, son, DIL, and two grands, plus most of DIL's parents and grands) have or are running through Covid....again....but are all coping well. 

 

Here's hoping we can get this all run through the various branches of the families and be well and enjoy the upcoming holiday seasons without sickness!

Re: Today, I'm Grateful because....

I'm grateful for all the people in my life who are kind and who try so hard to connect and show love. Even just observing others doing this for each other gives me a lot of joy. Every kind act I participate in and observe makes me deeply happy.

 

 

On a completely different note, I'm also grateful that Ukraine is kicking the rear ends of their horrific invaders! Woot woot woot! May peace reign very soon.

Re: Today, I'm Grateful because....

I'm grateful that:

 

1.  I appreciate the many blessings of life.

 

2.  I can help others in whatever ways I can.  As they say, helping others does more for the helper than the recipient of the help.
