July 11, 2010 – Health

So grateful today for health.

It’s been a long year.  And it’s been a long week.

If I’ve learned nothing else, it’s at the end of the day if you have your health, if your family is healthy… then nothing else matters at all.

I have that today.  I am absolutely beyond grateful.  The rest is nothing more than dust that needs to settle. Literally in some forms.  And I will be perfectly okay with that.

July 9, 2010 – Family


Family.  Recognizing it’s importance.  Enjoying time.  Appreciating moments. 

Support.  Laughs.  Time.  Patience.  Playing.  Talking.  Calm. Games.  Help.  Smiles.  Children.  Parents.  Grandparents.

A wonderful day that although has had many bumps, contained much more to be very grateful for.

July 7, 2010 – Patience

Today I am most grateful for more patience than I had yesterday.  For focusing on the positive instead of the negative.  For finding sunshine and happiness, peace and laughter with my kids today.

For living a life where I am going to sleep each night and being okay with how I’m living my life, raising my children, loving my family, treating my friends, understanding the world, sharing my happiness and learning from my mistakes.

That’s it.  Each day is a new start.  Some days are easier and better than others, but the effort and the sincerity of the effort is half the battle.

Not a bad thought for today… not bad at all.  Thank you, Mr. Emerson, for these words.

July 6, 2010 – One more….

One more thought to consider from my sweet and smart little read…

“That is the hardest thing of all. It is much harder to judge yourself than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourself, it's because you're truly a wise man. “

Antoine de Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince
