The Magic June 18

June 18

Count your blessings. Make a list of ten blessings. Write why you’re grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say thank you, thank you, thank you, and feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.

I am truly blessed to have awakened this morning, so happy!

I am so happy and grateful for having D accept my conciliatory gesture this morning,

2. Remember The magic by counting the blessings of yesterday and writing them down. Ask yourself the question: What are the good things that happened yesterday? Scan the surface of yesterday until you feel satisfied that you’ve remembered and written down all the blessings of the day.

1.      I got through the day with all the yuckies etc.

2.      At least the room was air conditions

3.      I FOUND MY OWN COMPASSION!!!! And made a conciliatory gesture.

4.      It was not responded to! So - I came here to my blog to distress. And it helped!

5.      I helped my mother for a long (and stressful for me) time.

I did 8 report cards
