28 Days of Gratitude: Day Fourteen - Half Way

Day Fourteen.  Half way.  I guess I could say I am grateful for that.  Sometimes it is a bit difficult coming up with something that I am grateful for that seems worth writing about and sharing with you.  I want what I write to be inspiring.  Other times I want it to be funny.  There are times when I want what I share to be challenging.  Serious is good.  Gratitude should have gravitas.  It should also have a lesson.  Well, at least that is what I think sometimes when I sit down to my computer and start typing.  

One thing that this exercise has done is to get me into thinking more often about the things I am grateful for.  But I guess I covered that when I wrote about be mindful.  I have given thanks for the usual, but not written about them.  That I think will come.  There is so much to be thankful for.  I do look at things very differently these days.  For instance, when I am fixing something to eat for lunch or dinner, I usually turn on the TV for the news.  Currently there are stories about the fight over healthcare, the typhoon in the Phillipines, sex scandals in the government (and everywhere else it seems), and such.  I think how very lucky I am to be in a safe, warm house with access to food and water and a place to sleep each night.  I am so very fortunate.  And I think I am taking these things less for granted these days.  

For that, I am grateful.
