Gratitude

[katepoet]

People who notice the things they are grateful for every day live happier lives, have more friends, end up in more satisfying jobs... the list is long. So use this thread to list 3-5 things you are grateful for today. It could be something beautiful, funny, friendly, small or large, insignificant or weighted with meaning, but find those things and share them here.:love079:

To start us off:

I am grateful for:

the free subscriptions I recently got to several magazines that are making me think.

the pretty yellow sycamore leaf that flew through the front door, down the hall, and found its way to my kitchen floor this morning.

the oil-filled space heater next to my desk that is keeping me warm enough to take time to make this post!

Today, I am grateful for my burgeoning business, albeit slow in coming, I am keeping us fed.

I am grateful for an invitation to a Christmas party - that means there will be at least 2 this year for me - last year we were too new here.

I am so grateful to have kind men in my family.
