It's not that I haven't ever been grateful before or realized how blessed I am. I used to be very good at it, in fact. And since my mind rarely shuts off I figured it would be healthy / awakening / beneficial to me [or more likely those with whom I interact] to give a little more of that thought-time to the goodness of life.
A blog in itself is a huge blessing to someone like me who can never seem to keep actual papers or journals organized and uncluttered. It is still shocking to remember that this wasn't available when I was born. We have access to information and relationships that were once unfathomable; I appreciate the generosity of those who share all of these emotions, logic, knowledge, humour, and beauty on here. Even the negative sides of the internet can be eye-opening. My mother used to always tell me that I could learn something from everyone: how I want to be or how I don't want to be. (She'll be a blessing for another post...or many)
But let's not get overwhelmed on the first day. This is a journey of gratefulness...
