...i am grateful...

Peek-a-Boo. Today it was a wee bit difficult to be grateful because I attempted to go shopping and couldn’t find anything to fit…hay….nonetheless I am grateful because I can still go shopping! In the end, I am reminded that things to be grateful for are just a peep away. Just as I was getting very frustrated, I read a plurk posted by a friend of mine about a Positive Photo Blog Contest in her new site, Framed In Sunlight where she has photos that are not just pleasing to the eye, but also have a lot of very positive insights to share.Not only did the idea of the contest spark interest, her blog is actually aligned with my own blog’s goal. You see, often times it is so easy to see only the dark and twisty details of our lives, the things that are missing, and the flaws we have, just like the leaves I captured in this photo. We often fail to look whats beyond those flaws. Once we do, we might just find something good saying peek-a-boo in the background. I fervently believe we can make a difference in our world if we stop being so cynical all the time, and perhaps start appreciating the simple things that come our way. It may not be a solution to the worlds problems, but I think this can start healing the world we live in. What do you think? 3.365

Third Time’s A Charm. Yes, here we go again. I just about gave up on doing a Project 365 but my friend convinced me to give it one more go, so here I am starting over again :-) I thought about whether keeping the regular 365 or this gratitude journal. I decided on this as it is something I HAVE TO REALLY GIVE VALUE TO. Today I am grateful for the opportunity to teach others to be grateful with this project. 1.365

50/365.2 i am grateful today for the summer that was. even though i am saddened by the idea that i am going back to “regular” working hours tomorrow, the summer was a great time of self-discovery and growth. it ushered in the birth of two new blogs, www.theaccidentalteacher.com and www.yapatoots.com.

42/365.2 i am grateful today for friendships that have lasted over decades…for the assurance that no matter how far away we get or how much older we have become, we always will still have a solid foundation to fall back to. i am also grateful to bear witness to the birth of our next generation.
