Gratitude

So today I'm reminded of the beauty and power of prayer and I'm extremely grateful to say the least. You see, a dear friend was recently diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer and yesterday was surgery day. It can be hard facing the 'c' word ... well, that's an understatement! AND, with prayers and support, the surgery had a positive outcome for the first part of this journey.

Life is precious. We get so caught up in the day to day that we forget to appreciate the little things and to make time for the things that truly are the most important. I think the reminder of this with all my friend is going through was particularly poignant today.

And so today's blog is short and to the point. I DARE you to find one thing, no make that three things that you are grateful for and share them on here or with a friend. From being grateful for the opportunity to live a brand new day, to gratitude to getting the laundry done, this does not need to be over thought. Keep it simple!!

I know I'm grateful for this blog and the opportunity to share it with whoever feels compelled to read it. I'm grateful for my amazing family, and I'm grateful for the gift of creativity because it keeps me sane! What about you? Go on, it's time for you to share!!
