For November I am following something I saw on InstaGram. For each day of the month I acknowledged something I am grateful for. I truly believe in the power of positive thinking. There is negativity everywhere and I think the more we look around the more we see that have to be grateful for and the more positive a person can become.
These are not in an order of importance. So far this month I have laid in bed each night and thought about the day and based on what transpired each day I choose and often listed the first thing that came to mind -
November 1st - Gentle rainfall
November 2nd - Friends
November 3rd - The freedom to cast my vote
November 4th - Children
November 5th - Retirement
November 6th - Walking in the crisp air
November 7th - Stitching day with friends
November 8th - Unseasonable warm weather in November
November 9th - The smell of line-dried sheets on the bed
My point is easily proved. All around each of us are things we take for granted that we can be grateful for......... big and small, physical and not physical, tangible or felt....
I will repost the completed list at the end of the month.
I plan to keep it going. Maybe it will be a new habit that I continue with long after November.
Thanks for stopping by. Keep safe, stay healthy and keep on stitching.
