Why is Thanksgiving only a day? Why aren’t we thankful everyday?
In keeping with the general spirit of the mindful/conscious living post from yesterday, I’m going to try to remember to post a quick little something everyday this month about something I’m thankful for. I feel that being aware of the blessings and good things in our daily lives can sometimes be the catalyst or beginning of being more mindful in general.
So I guess for November 2011, I’m going to be keeping a daily gratitude journal of sorts. But I may forget … life happens, you know … so we’ll just see how it goes. LOL! No pressure. No legalism. No “oughts” or “shoulds” or “musts.” Wanna join me?
30 Days of Thanksgiving
DAY ONE:
I’m grateful for the beautiful sunny drive to work today with the low lying clouds just barely covering the autumn trees. I wish I’d had my camera, but I was in a hurry to get to work on time. But even with the need for speed (I didn’t speed, by the way), I still made a point of looking and actually seeing the beautiful day. It was almost like I took a mental photograph. I can pull up the image in my mind right now, as a matter of fact.
Okay, your turn. What are YOU thankful for today?
