Create a Gratitude List

 

A critical key to happiness is gratitude. A recent post on the  Nurturing Creativity blog discusses creating your own gratitude list. What are you grateful for? Here’s my partial list – look forward to reading yours.

 

  1. A devoted husband of 30+ years who works hard to protect and provide.
  2. A Mother who is always caring for others (including me and my broken ankle).
  3. A son who shares our passion for progressive politics with his 12-year-old.
  4. A loving daughter-in-law equally dedicated to her family and her education
  5. Grandson  Hunter (12) who shares his wisdom and loves to stay up late watching my favorite B movies like Jason and the Argonauts.
  6. Kael and Orion (3 1/2) – who love coming to Grandma’s house. Kael is the “big” brother and scolds me for reprimanding Orion and let’s me play with his train. Orion is the snuggly one with a devilish personality who loves to chase me with the water hose.
  7. A warm, safe and comfy home (thanks Arden) where I can work, create, laugh and share all the goodness that comes from my family.
  8. My passion for learning – always challenges me and keeps me entertained.
  9. My writing talent is a source of pride and enjoyment.

Leave a comment today and tell us what you are grateful for.
