This post is inspired by the book The Secret. I got a little daily inspiration notebook made by the creator of the book, and it asks that every day you write down 100 thinks you are grateful for. It seems like a lot to write, and a lot to think of... but I thought I would give it a try. So I decided to share my list here (in no particular order;)

Good job, I love them all, especially #84!
ReplyDeleteXOXO Connie
yeah, me too!!! haha!!
ReplyDeleteGreat list, and great idea!
ReplyDeleteLet's see - 10 things I am grateful for:
1) my family, near and far, and especially for the innocence of my grandkids
2) freedom to do the right things
3) opportunities to learn and expand my experiences
4) Arizona sunrises and sunsets
5) Those all-too-rare trips to the ocean that allow me to regroup
6) wildflowers
7) having enough to do to keep me busy, and then some
8) manufacturers that list whether the "sugar" in their ingredients is cane or beet sugar. (I have a food sensitivity to beet sugar and have to be very careful about ingredients!)
9) medical insurance coverage
10)stormy nights
I may have to steal this and do a list on my blog in the not too distant future!
Thanks for the opportunity :)
Karen
Great Karen, thank you for taking the time to do this. You may steal away... the more gratitude spread out into the universe the better, I think;)
