We have been spoiled this year. Last year, the weather was brutally cold and everyone had a common complaint - the weather. You could go no where without hearing someone moaning about how miserable they were. I realized at some point - my 'ah-ha moment' for the year - that our complaining did nothing to change the weather ... instead, it just made us more miserable because our complaining did nothing to change our conditions.
This year - we've had maybe a couple of weeks of cold weather. Sure, we've had snow, but honestly, today, would almost swear that green grass was considering poking through the brown stuff on the ground and I wonder if leaves are thinking about budding. It's winter!! and yet, we wear sweaters, light shoes, and some people even are wearing shorts! crazy!!
Today's Gratitude Moments
1/ Today, I'm grateful for the beautiful weather! I might not stay, but I'm glad it's here!
2/ Today, I'm grateful for a lovely lunch with RD (from AMEC - Brion Project). Another new friend!
3/ Today, I'm grateful for the people who checked in to see how I am doing. It really makes a difference when someone calls to see how you are doing and offers support, encouragement, and suggestions!
4/ Today, I'm grateful to find out more and more that my being let go from my job had little to do with me and more to do with a decision to benefit others over me. I'm ok with that.
5/ Today, I'm grateful for a quiet evening watching TV. I should do less of it, but I do enjoy it when I can.
