The Magic Aug 10


Aug. 10

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 live in a place where there are very few natural disasters.  And access to mountains and beaches both.
Because it is happenstance from my grandparents to my parents….
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am so happy and grateful for the time with J. now.
Because we have BOTH grown. And – who knows…
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am truly grateful for friends, and seeing them more this summer!
Because we ALL enrich each OTHER’S lives!
Thank you thank you thank you!

With all my heart, thank you for having started on my cleanin today!
Because the bathroom, den, and kitchen are all better!
Thank you thank you thank you!                                                                                                       

I am truly blessed to have my health!
Because I understand the saying, “When you have your health, you have everything…”
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am so happy and grateful for my hearing the birds and looking up,
Because I saw that their door had swung shut and they were locked OUTSIDE of the cage wanting to get IN!
So I opened it immediately. And they ate.
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am truly grateful that I now enough to not leave then unattended when out!
Because I am responsible for their safety and health.
Thank you thank you thank you!

With all my heart, thank you for books
Because  I enjoy them, and they teach me, and they help me stay connected as I am in a reading group.
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am so incredibly fortunate and lucky and grateful for people liking me
Because it sure feels a lot better than if they didn’t.
Thank you thank you thank you!

I am so incredibly fortunate and lucky and grateful for my hands
Because I do piano, typing, bird care, cleaning, hug-touching, writing, cooking, pouring water, washing, so much thanks to my hands.
Thank you thank you thank you!

Thank you thank you thank you!
